|
It's as if we're tracing some familiar fault line |
|
Running down the coast from you to me |
|
Dark potential just beneath the surface, |
|
All the worlds colliding in the tragedy |
|
Blood from a stone, wine from water |
|
I'd die here alone, only daughter |
|
Blood from a stone, wine from water |
|
I'd die here alone, like a lamb to slaughter |
|
Silence has become our only currency |
|
You pay me and I'll be sure to pay you back |
|
But step lightly til you've crossed the jagged border |
|
Cuz the earth may shift beneath you, pull the rug out, |
|
All your history keeping track |
|
Blood from a stone, wine from water |
|
I'd die here alone, only daughter |
|
Blood from a stone, wine from water |
|
I'd die here alone, like a lamb to slaughter |
|
I'll reel in my addictions in the face of your distress |
|
Aches and pains all shelved and put aside |
|
I'll jump to my conclusions, but I'll leap to your defense |
|
And I'll wish I were the brave one as I breathe another lie |
|
'Cause it runs in the family, it's coursing through our veins |
|
It lingers and gets caught in our hearts |
|
Running in the family, it's a little like insane |
|
The trimmings and the trappings of the artist and the art |
|
Blood from a stone, wine from water |
|
I'd die here alone, only daughter |
|
Blood from a stone, wine from water |
|
I'd die here alone, like a lamb to slaughter |
