The Throne
If you're past tired There is a throne for you Whether the first or last to the fire There is a throne for you Though at night you are deviled by the angels you're wrestlin' No strength left to grieve, let alone give confession Here's all I know, what I come here to share I have been to the throne, and there was nobody there If you're laid low There is a throne for you Even though you sold your soul There is a throne for you The weather, the news, the self-isolation The loss of the muse, the disinformation We're made to take burdens never meant to be shouldered Ain't no one so strong that the world's just a boulder The past ain't the past, you find that so maddening Like it's already happened, look around you, it's happening There are those who don't know what it is they're defending They ain't been to the throne, they don't know that it's empty Though you lost your faith There is a throne for you Letras de cancionesThough you've been cast by the way There is a throne for you What kind of a god could the world take after? What father of daffodils, slavery and laughter? We take our first breath, from then on we're drowning Ain't no wonder the heart beats itself to death pounding No time to forgive, no time to forget, or Time to consider which angels are better The war is too big for any one man to win it I have been to the throne, and there was nobody in it So if you are wild There is a throne for you Whether untouchable or defiled There is a throne for you Come and sit by this fire they claim that we've stolen Not a thing they could buy could ever shine quite as golden Come and sit by this fire, we won it to share Though we're sinners and liars, new world's gotta start somewhere We're just skin and bones, ain't a one of us magic I have been to throne, the throne never had it We're just skin and bones, in that there is power I have been to the throne, if we want it, it's ours I have been to the throne, if we want it, it's ours From Letras Mania
