Come and Gone

All the things I wanted to say Caught in my throat like a wild animal Trying to break the chains The stories we hold in our bones The secrets and the memories The geography of home Let's light a fire in the dead of night Sing like we've never sung Then think ourselves away In the wounded morning light To set free the bird Flightless in our chests Listen to her sing her sunrise song But tomorrows already come and gone All the wolves we kept from our minds Were there all along in the teeth of the night Preying on our borrowed time Come let's light a fire in the dead of night Sing like we've never sung Then think ourselves away in the naked morning light To set free the bird flightless in our chests Listen to her sing her sunrise song But tomorrows already come and gone When old lights Shine on something new And the writing on the wall Is the one we have our backs turned to If we tear out these pages And burn them all through We could light a fire in the dead of night Sing like we've never sung Then think ourselves away At the crazy break of day To set free the bird Flightless in our chests Listen to her sing her sunrise song But tomorrows already come and gone Tomorrows already come and gone Tomorrows already come and gone
