lyrics

I woke up this morning after you
I figured out how I would lose
The road takes me farther than I choose
As I go blind to the other man

As he was
See how he never waits for more?
This heart isn't right—it never was
See how it severs every part of who you have loved
It's a long way back to you now

Whatever those waters seem to prove
And what control I had thought I knew
Still all of our failings follow blood right through
Into the veins of a better man

As he was
See how he never waits for more?
This heart isn't right—it never was
See how it severs every part
And still how it goes
But isn't it strange how I can be farther than you want,
Yet be there the same?

You found your sister there at only four years old
At the bottom of the stairs she cracked her head and when she went your father met
The escape of drunkenness
All my tries, dear, to not be the same

When it comes as the heaviest sheets
As the water before I could breath
And you look back—the way that it was
What is progress but means to be lost?

But peace is not absence of strife
Not the slumped walk and egress of war
But it comes as the presence of one
Who has ravaged all distance to me
