Move a Mile

Come the ornamental morning it will over stay its welcome
It will drive you from the dawn back to the dark
From a detrimental warning to the sunshine you were born in
To the mystery that made you make your mark

It has conquered land and ocean there's no coward it can't find
In your days of absolution it will make you lose your mind
It's a prophecy foretold by none, it's not a friend to anyone
It'll build you up a black dog and resign

So many shadows have come for me, baby I'm too tired
I stole the best of what's left of me and baby I've gone wild
But don't think of me it is too late
Takes a lot of love to conquer hate
Takes a lot of races run to move a mile

In the fashion of a new day under skies of hallelujah
In the servitude of stone you play your cards
Every moment of you waking there's a heart inside you breaking
There's a pattern of a kind in every part

And you stand there like a spire when the fire makes it's move
And you run like dogs desire like there's something left to prove
It's a fantasy all come undone, no one for all no all for one

In the recipe of rain it is the sun
So many shadows have come for me,
Baby I'm too tired
I stole the best of what's left of me
And baby I've gone wild
But don't think of me it is too late,
Takes a lot of love to conquer hate
Takes a lot of races run to move a mile
