The Mourning
As the workers gathered in the morning Open wounds closed for the night While the mourners gathered In the pouring rain We fight, following the morning I'd have sworn we'd be alright Said it would all look better by the morning After the fight But you adjusted with ease Rather lonely but free, from me.
Did you find that you were an after thought In the hearts of the ones that you love? Money lenders, tax collectors Turned the tables round. I was a ghost for a while But I turned out to be a man Was lower than most on the pile But you helped me understand I was a ghost for a while But you helped me to be a man
Holding on to things from years gone by Playing games with girls when we were high We've been taken though our paces Our stern face, life in stages Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Arrows and cages in love
Marks on maps and poor excuses And if it's all the same to you I want to lose it And we did all we could to try and prove it And I said I'd see this through I'm drawing lines on maps to try and move it Hour hands on clocks to back 'til we remove All the things we said when we both knew That we are too old to wait our turn We are too old to live and learn We are too old to play like When we were young
But did you find that you were an after thought In the hearts of the ones that you loved? Money lenders, tax collectors Turned the tables round. I was a ghost for a while But I turned out to be a man And I'll be a bird for a while But you'll be there when I land I was a ghost for a while But you helped me be a man
