Song Of Unrest Lyrics


City & Colour Song Of Unrest

[Verse 1]
Have I lost my touch?
I wanna feel less fear
Where is the stirring of hope?
Once I held so near

[Verse 2]
This mournful wail
Has worn away so thin
Life is long if you're living it
But dread will blow in like the wind

[Chorus]
How can I explain?
So that you will understand
How foolish it must be
To opine so openly (So openly)
Such a delicate life
So full of tragedy (Ooh, ooh)
Why do we continue to treat
Each other so savagely?
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 3]
Pills don't seem to work
We're lost at the bottom of the sea
Our bones are searchin' for something else
Tired of the flesh that they see

[Verse 4]
I never thought
That I'd grow up to be
Another face in the crowd
On the wrong side of history (History)
(Oh, I'm sorry, history)

[Chorus]
How can I explain
So that you will understand?
How foolish it must be
To opine so openly (So openly)
Such a delicate life
So full of tragedy (Tragedy)
Why do we continue to treat
Each other so savagely?

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
