"Here In The High And Low" lyrics
"Here In The High And Low"
The sound of the drum, the pulse of your feet
The sight of the mountain, the scent of the sea
All of the earth that gave you your strength
Formed you and bruised you and brought you to me
Here in the high and low
All that came before has to go
Here in the high and low
All that came before has to go
Guard what's gentle, not castles or kings
Their future ruins, your planted seeds
That cover the earth with flowers and leaves
For children to wander and hunger to feed
Here in the high and low
All that came before has to go
Here in the high and low
All that came before has to go
We're building our ship, we're making our plans
On rising water and sinking sand
So join in the song and join in the band
My only one, you don't have to be
The hero
Here in the high and low
Hero
Here in the high and low

From your fire, babe
But I'll...
Hand Habits - "Graves" So is that how you see it?
Tying knots on a string
As if memories cure pain
Or is it easier not to say it?
Don't go digging up graves
And is that all you got?
Just a hole in a song
And you fill it...

I've got no one I'm waiting on
I just pulled into town an hour ago
From the streets of Houston
To this diner in Ohio
I'm just waitin' for the bar to open
'Cause I'm a little bit...
Martha Wainwright - "Factory" These are not my people, I should never have come here
The chick with a dick and the gift for the gab
I know a place, I've seen the face
And I'll take the coast from factory to factory
