LYRICS
I saw it for a second but then the light was fading
Sister morphine was my lady in waiting
Can I help it if I canā€™t help it now, all the stories I tell myself
What can I say to you all, itā€™s fair to say, no words will do

All this time, time is speeding, itā€™s hard to recognize the life weā€™re leaving
itā€™s time to trip the light of the evening and go now
And in this land thereā€™s shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
cradle to the grave, sword to the saddle, itā€™s each other we will miss

Oh the happiest moment of my life, was the saddest moment of my life
Was in prison when my daddy died
They didnā€™t tell me for fear of suicide
Told me when I got outside, I started using as soon as I was alone that night
And I died and I went up straight to him
He said where you been, my troubled son
All this time, time is speeding, hard to recognize the life weā€™re leaving
itā€™s time to trip the light of the evening and go now
And in this land thereā€™s shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
cradle to the grave, sword to the saddle, itā€™s each other we will miss

Oh the happiest moment of my life, was the saddest moment of my life

Oh my love can I just sit and hold your face. We finally made it here but now the light is low.

All this time, time is speeding, hard to recognize the life weā€™re leaving
itā€™s time to trip the light of the evening and go now
And in this land thereā€™s shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
Now Iā€™m feeling kind of faint, I think I need to lay down

Oh you almost saved me
You almost saved me
You almost saved me now
You almost saved me now
You almost saved me now
You almost saved me now
All this time we pledge allegiance to the tune of a thousand treasons
One nation under something, under water, under mass incarceration
In the age of feast and famine can we disrupt the social canon
Let our children lead sā€™we all believe, let us see the forest for the trees
