Veins of your History
How long will your crown stay gold?
Will it slip away and leave when you're old?
I'll wait where the tall tree bends
If you find me, I'll be with you near the end
How long before that fear sets in?
Will it come to you to wash away your sin
How long before you cut me down to size
However long it takes you to realize
Oh, my love, you're not alone
Oh, my love, you're not alone
And you move around in this city
It's veins shaped your history
I know you've been far from home
And that medicine cuts right to the bone
I see the grief got caught on your face
Running from a nameless place
Go tell your father you didn't mean to lie
But don't worry about us, we'd never ask you, "Why?"
Oh, my love, you're not alone
Oh, my love, you're not alone
You'll take off your sides, that river runs wide
You'll wait where only better winds have blown
For a little peace-of-mind, it's a hard way to be
For a little peace-of-mind, that's a hard way to be
Will it slip away and leave when you're old?
I'll wait where the tall tree bends
If you find me, I'll be with you near the end
How long before that fear sets in?
Will it come to you to wash away your sin
How long before you cut me down to size
However long it takes you to realize
Oh, my love, you're not alone
Oh, my love, you're not alone
And you move around in this city
It's veins shaped your history
I know you've been far from home
And that medicine cuts right to the bone
I see the grief got caught on your face
Running from a nameless place
Go tell your father you didn't mean to lie
But don't worry about us, we'd never ask you, "Why?"
Oh, my love, you're not alone
Oh, my love, you're not alone
You'll take off your sides, that river runs wide
You'll wait where only better winds have blown
For a little peace-of-mind, it's a hard way to be
For a little peace-of-mind, that's a hard way to be
