Points of My Departure Songtext

von Vigilantes of Love

I know a man who wept a song about a mess he'd made
Bound up by the lashes of denying
You know the chasm between what's done and said
But you can't blame a man for trying

Come to me like when the rain falls
Like the arrows from the archer
Let the wind behind the stars call me
From the points of my departure

Happens to the best of us these inconvenient things
Happens to the rogues, the kings and queens
The heart has its poison she keeps hidden away
'Til someone holds it up to the clear light of day

The drowning know they're sinking
The dead know they're not breathing
And I will take this song and be forever grateful
At least as much as I am able

Come to me
