Staves The Motherlode
Counting the winters, numb too cold Searching the valley, for secrets untold The mountains are children, to someone so old A king without kingdom or throne Digging the mud and the stone All men have left here But you have remained At the banks of the river, forever the same Though no water flows here, the memory stays As long as it stays you are here Heart broken year after year People running away, running like strangers day after day Breathe in, you're not alone Golden river running from her home
The sun was an altar, before reaching out And raised up the dagger, that hung from his belt He cursed his disillusion and the sadness he felt Weeping at what he'd become, just a fool in the gold of the sun People running away, running like strangers day after day Breathe in, you're not alone
Golden river running from her home Golden river running from her home Golden river running from her home Golden river running from her home
