Dark Tears lyrics
My camera doesn't lie to me
I see dark tears behind its eye
My camera doesn't lie to me
I see dark tears behind its eye
It looks backwards on my future
Already in the sweet by and by
The rambler vines are climbing
They lock their arms across my way
The rambler vines are climbing
They lock their arms across my way
Blood lilies tell my secrets
Like they were the time of day
Your body speaks the broken street
Swinging as you go
Your body speaks the broken street
Swinging as you go
Sometimes words escape me
But there's a rhythm to all we know
Some take wine for water
Some make bread from stone
Some take love for granted
Like they'll never be alone
I walk the Shadow River
And the dead don't mind at all
Their memories just grow stronger
And their stories twice as tall
Out along the darkest bank
I can't see your boat from here
Out along the darkest bank
I can see your boat from here
I'm going to stand out on the water
Till one of us does disappear
