Fools and Kings Songtext

von Fighting Gravity

All alone at sea again, no one here but me
Sail is burning in the night, no land as far as I can see
Hands are shaking by my side, no one at the wheel
Bodies trapped beneath the hull, their souls for you to steal
Somewhere the tide is searching for a far off land
Where people bow and pray to God hoping he understands
[Refrain]
Fools and kings and better men look at the stars to guide their way
For all I can see it's no better to me than a voice without words to say
Fools and kings and better men look at the stars to guide their way
For all I can see it's no better to me than a voice without words to say
Rain it falls upon my head, thunder fills my veins
Waiting for an answer to why I call your name
Lessons learned in dying young, children falling down
Part of me is laughing now at all the tears I've found
Somewhere the tide is searching for a far off land
Where the people bow and pray to God hoping he understands
[Refrain]
Sinking to the bottom now...(darkness all around)
Sinking to the bottom now...(nowhere to be found)
Colder will I be tonight, never will I end this fight
Fade away again, fade away again...(but you can see me standing here)
Falling off the edge I see there is no other way
It wasn't me who asked for these tears I have today
Heaven never felt so good, hell not far behind
So I walk into my own as all your words remind me that
Somewhere the tide is searching for a far off land
Where people bow and pray to God hoping he understands
[Refrain]
