Lyrics
Body And Wine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Rusty ground and dusty roads
It's been a while since you were king
Undermined and overthrown
You tried to run it on your own
Forget the birds with broken wings
Under piles of things on things
No one stops and no one stares
Seen it all and no one cares
What if this was all that we were made of?
This was all that we could make of love
If there wasn't more, I wouldn't be here
Hero and crime, body and wine
Drove my heart toward the sea
Passed the graves up over hills
Saw the spires hit the ground
Voices raised without a sound
What if this was all that we were made of?
This was all that we could make of love
If there wasn't more, I wouldn't be here
Hero and crime, body and wine
Hero and crime, body and wine
What if this was all that we were made of?
This was all that we could make of love
If there wasn't more, I wouldn't be here
Hero and crime, body and wine
What if this was all that we were made of?
This was all that we could make of love
If there wasn't more, I wouldn't be here
Hero and crime, body and wine
Hero and crime, body and wine
Body and wine
