well i once argued reason with an angel
and i once fell in love with a fading star
i traded all my silver moonlight
for the fire of a broken heart
so let the ravens weep
let them beg for wine
i've heard so much truth
i could use a good lie
well i once argued fate with a tear drop
and i once kissed the mouth of a thousand years
her eyes shined bluer than the ocean
but i made them blacker than the darkest night
oh, the awful joy
of hurting and to hurt
when the love that you built
was both your blessing and curse
there are wild rivers that run through our blood
there are whispers still unsure that sit on our tongues
there are heavy afternoons that rest in our lungs
there is time to make the same
of what we need and what we want.
