Nothing Ever Changes

I feel the train when it stops running
I know the path that leads me on
And the music of the river, how the wind it makes me shiver
It gets cold here in the winter and the fall
I've met with queens and I've known preachers
I've walked the mountains they hold strong
But to hold the cards is heavy, hear the crying of the many
And the night goes on in cycles swift and strong

Ooo
Ooo ooo

Nothing ever changes
I've seen every mile of dry terrain and
People spilling blood like water
To take from one another on the burnt sea
And I'll roam these endless plains
With shielded eyes in search of earthly angels
Keep looking at the sky, cuz theres nowhere left to hide
Once the adrenaline leaves
I don't want more of everything than
Understanding how I'm meant to be

Don't call me friend don't offer shelter
I've built my own house of rocks and bone
And I'll sit within the fire's spit
Waiting for my work to feel like home

But nothing ever changes
I've seen every mile of dry terrain and
People spilling blood like water
To take from one another on the burnt sea
And I'll roam these endless plains
With shielded eyes in search of earthly angels
Keep looking at the sky, cuz theres nowhere left to hide
Once the adrenaline leaves
I don't want more of everything than
Understanding how I'm meant to be

Find me when its quiet and
Remind me who I've been
Don't know when I forgot the way
I'm lighter when you're next to me
And your hand's on my cheek
Just like it was when we were seventeen
Disguised in the trees
Your eyes shone brighter than the night sky
Our hearts beat at the same time
Your eyes still shine
When they meet mine

In the silence there is music
All that's bad and all that's good is
Here in these four seasons
The train is moving
Nothing ever changes
