- Every Time I Die Wanderlust 歌詞
- Every Time I Die
- Ive drowned my conscience and cast another stone
I took to preaching while dancing on the code
I cant see where Ive been and only God knows where Ill be
But there must be a place for a wretch like me
Oh, Lord knows Im tired
But I, I, I wont rest my head until Im home
And if my hands find themselves another body
Well, you cant blame them for trying to keep warm
Morals are simply a matter of time
And where you lay your heads a question of pride
But when its said and done youll find in the light
That privilege and wit make me misfortunes child
Cant tell collapse that it needs to slow down
Cant tell death that it shouldnt come around
And when they take my head and put it on a stake
I know that guilt and disgrace keep the dead man awake
Bartering your figure for a paralyzing love
What have you done? What have you done?
I tipped the scaffold and laughed until I fell
Girl, if you need me grab another from the well
I cant imagine what hell has in store
But I know if Im there I wont wander anymore
Oh, Lord knows Im tired
But I, I, I wont rest my head until Im home
And if my hands find themselves another body
Well, you cant blame them for trying to keep warm
Oh, Lord knows Im weak
But I, I, I cant clear my head if Im asleep
Morals are simply a matter of tide
And where you lay your heads a question of pride
But when its said and done youll find in the light
That privilege and wit make me misfortunes child
Cant tell collapse that it needs to slow down
Cant tell death that it shouldnt come around
And when they take my head and put it on a stake
I know that guilt and disgrace keep the dead man awake
Weve lived under this dark cloud forever
Waited for the bad light to break
Just let me tell that one again
With a little more feeling
We slept at the crossroads together
Tried to make an honest mistake
Just let me tell that one more time
Without a smile on my face
And now the road is empty as every promise is
If life is pointless then point taken, say Amen
So light another candle and point my body out to sea
Because your heart is no place for a wretch like me
Another stranger passing, a common dissonance
If life is pointless then point taken, say Amen
So light another candle and point my body out to sea
Because your side is no place for a wretch like me
When they unearth these passages
Will I appear to be proud?
Not if youre listening close enough
Not if youre sounding it out
