Traveling with what withstands
Silently from heart to hands
And I know and I know I was breaking down
And I know and I know I can never break down again

How I stood when I was stronger
Can’t hold these walls up any longer
And I know I don’t know anything any more
And I know I don’t know anything any more

Help! Winter’s taken years from me
Help! Don’t drive another nail in
Help! This coffin’s made of my intentions
How did I wander in to the wrong house?

One divided by a stranger
There’s nothing left but a remainder
And I know and I know there was nothing there
And I know and I know there was never anything there before.

Face to face with the remainder
Life rolls by and calls me a stranger
And I know and I know there was nothing there
And I know and I know the goals are empty again

Within my dreams it seems forever black and white
Any childhood prayer I had I sent up with my kite
And I know they don’t fly anymore
And I know the kite is touching down again

Have we found a sign of life
to kill us when we’re done?
We seem to die much quicker
when at port for way too long
I haven’t seen the reasons for
This burial unsung
We seem to die much quicker
when at port for way too long

So pack up your bags boys
There’s something we must do
From Lindburg to Newark we’ll look to the sky
Do you think they will want us?
And how will we get there?
From Newark to Zurich
Is 5,000 miles

Below we all thought
That a fall was a’comin
But purpose revives us
Our spirit renewed
We broke from the gate
But this dark horse had hurdles
We kept on runnin’
With our broken leg

So lets pack up our bags boys
There’s something we must do
With a wink from the gods
We’ll make it to the coast
And a caravan trails us
With friends so supportive
On a tour that now drives us
Thanks to our gracious hosts

Below we all thought
That a fall was a’comin
But purpose revives us
Our spirit renewed
We broke from the gate
But this dark horse had hurdles
We kept on runnin’
With our broken leg

Now that we’ve crossed those bridges
Where can we run?
We look behind us
And we all tore them down
Once I thought you were sincere
But now I know you
Better than ever
Scars forever

Now that you’ve shown your hand
Your desperate round
Your colors ran
And I can’t help you now
And I thought the signs were there
But you were sleeping
Don’t scream at the sky
the sun sets on you now

Refrain:
You take care of yourself and your black heart
And sell me down the river
Sell me down the river
Sell me down the …

As you twist in the breeze
Hung out to dry
The writing thunders
And no one here is blind
Once I thought you were sincere
But now I know you
Better than ever
Scars forever

Refrain:
You take care of yourself and your black heart
And sell me down the river
Sell me down the river
Sell me down the…

You’re as far now as you should be
While I’m wallowing and low
When I drink I think of you
When I’m drunk I miss you so
Hello sun hello moon
Bring the storm to call the tune
When I’m drunk I miss you so
When I drink I think of you

Now you’re just another specter
Who still swims inside my head
Who left her number under the bottle
On the nightstand by my bed
Call my name, we can dance
For at least another tune
Cuz when I’m drunk I miss you so
When I drink I think of you

Please go
Please go

Now just put your hands right through me
Pull my heart out of my chest
And squeeze a drop of blood into the glass
And raise it for the west
Add some salt from the tears
And we can have another tune
Cuz when I’m drunk I miss you so
When I drink I think of you

Please go
Please go

You’re as far now as you should be
While I’m wallowing and low
When I drink I think of you
When I’m drunk I miss you so
Hello sun hello moon
Bring the storm to call the tune
When I’m drunk I miss you so
When I drink I think of you
