Fools And Kings Lyrics

Fighting Gravity Fools And Kings

(Lyrics, Music: Triano, Peterson, Leitch)
All alone at sea again, no one here but me
Sail is burning in the night, no land as far as I can see
Hands are shaking by my side, no one at the wheel
bodies trapped beneath the hull, their souls for you to steal
Somewhere the tide is searching for a far off land
where people bow and pray to God hoping he understands
(Refrain)
Fools and kings and better men look at the stars to guide their way
For all I can see it's no better to me than a voice without words to say
Fools and kings and better men look at the stars to guide their way
For all I can see it's no better to me than a voice without words to say
Rain it falls upon my head, thunder fills my veins
Waiting for an answer to why I call your name
Lessons learned in dying young, children falling down
Part of me is laughing now at all the tears I've found
Somewhere the tide is searching for a far off land
where the people bow and pray to God hoping he understands
(Refrain)
Sinking to the bottom now...(darkness all around)
Sinking to the bottom now...(nowhere to be found)
Colder will I be tonight, never will I end this fight
Fade away again, fade away again...(but you can see me standing here)
Falling off the edge I see there is no other way
It wasn't me who asked for these tears I have today
Heaven never felt so good, hell not far behind
So I walk into my own as all your words remind me that
Somewhere the tide is searching for a far off land
where people bow and pray to God hoping he understands
(Refrain)
