Lack
Will Reagan's song 'Lack' is a reflective and somewhat abstract piece that explores themes of doubt, trust, and the search for meaning. The lyrics touch on the idea of picking apart 'empty dust' and the tension between fear and childlike faith. There is a sense of waiting and questioning, with references to grace and truth being found in the midst of struggle. The song carries a contemplative, almost melancholic tone, inviting listeners to consider the fragility of human understanding and the need for divine grace. While not overtly worshipful, it resonates with Christian themes of reconciliation and reliance on God's grace.
Down along the wild
Surely shots were fired
Bought with blood and pride
Heard the sounds of sight
Too soon to see, to soon to trust
We pick apart the empty dust
The lack that leads to luck
You might, you should, you must
Give care back there, reconcile
The fearful and the playful child
That leads us to a fate
Lest we just stand and wait
Could this be the end
Our goodness all but spent
Thought you'd understand
[?]
Crawling down the empty [?]
The truth we felt was old and tired
We never spoke a lie
But what we knew was time
Don't look to what was left [?]
Your grace is what you choose to dare
The truth is in the air
The sweat, the tears, the care
Doubt among the wild
[?] lines
Caught with mud in time
Heard of sounds of night
