Lyrics

Gracefully sneaking up on me

They just want to tear my feathers

The golden light of the setting sun

Let me be a hypocrite again

I will be gone before long

I know I’m wrong

No matter how far I go they find me out

I wish the gusts took away my gloom

I can’t help this vague feeling

I feel so good but I’m worn out

We’ll be all right don’t look so sad

Confess my sin conceal them all

Night will come soon and swallow everything

Quietly hiding in the grass

Hearing the leaves rustling

They’re singing with a burning piano

It gives me cheap relief

I feel so good

We’ll be all right

Then I give all up

What It Means

Looked at closely, “Sacred Play Secret Place” is about the feeling captured in its very first words: “Gracefully sneaking up on me”. The narrator keeps returning to the same images — “We’ll be all right don’t look so sad” — until the final line “Then I give all up” brings it home. It is honest without being heavy, and the repetition makes the meaning easy to follow even on the first listen.

Where It Works Best

• Driving, especially at night
