The Only Ones Lyrics - Common Rider

though the hammer's blind 

though the weapon's primed 

though the water's mined 

you are not the last 

you're not iron cast 

not a broken mast 

the way that a crude anxiety knocks around underneath the crosswalk 

the way that the roar of unsaid things drowns out all the small talk 

yeah, ghost walk, till the dead grow tired of the night 

though you are alone 

you have never been the only one 

we will reach from our points in the dark 

and see where luck comes from 

the god of increase 

is not a god of peace 

and it troubles me 

to the burning ups 

to the whiskey cups 

to the purple dusk 

faith in places where the mind can't go but the heart hangs around 

traced in the faces where the eyes recall what's still important now 

yeah, trust this, and the whole blue world will be yours and mine 

though you are alone 

you have never been the only one 

we will reach from our points in the dark 

and see where luck comes from 

in the city of shut down lights 

in the crosshairs of enemy sights 

we will reach from the dark 

till we excavate a sky 

(calling ... calling ...) 

though you are alone 

you have never been the only one 

we will reach from our points in the dark 

and see where luck comes from 

though you are alone 

you have never been the only one 

we will reach from our points in the dark 

and see where luck comes from 

see where luck comes from 

see where luck comes from
