Vessel

Oh brother I've wandered far from home Oh mother I'm far too young to grow old Oh father my heart is far too strong To be afraid to go on Oh lover our love was more than all But now it's washed and I must go The tides will carry me from shore I'll cry alone, then cry no more These tears will fill the seas And when it rains you'll know it's me You'll know I'm fine and always here That we're more than tragedies The body's the weakest of them all The storms will come and sweep our bones The winds will see the paths we walked Our smiles, our loves, our joys My childhood's gone, that much I know It used to seem it would go on I had it all, then it was gone One day I'll sing no more These tears will fill the seas And when it rains you'll know it's me You'll know I'm fine and always here That we're more than tragedies I've just got this feeling In my heart That there's more to me than They let me have
