Fools And Kings Lyrics - Singles - Fighting Gravity

(Lyrics, Music: Triano, Peterson, Leitch) 

All alone at sea again, no one here but me 

Sail is burning in the night, no land as far as I can see 

Hands are shaking by my side, no one at the wheel 

bodies trapped beneath the hull, their souls for you to steal 

Somewhere the tide is searching for a far off land 

where people bow and pray to God hoping he understands 

(Refrain) 

Fools and kings and better men look at the stars to guide their way 

For all I can see it's no better to me than a voice without words to say 

Fools and kings and better men look at the stars to guide their way 

For all I can see it's no better to me than a voice without words to say 

Rain it falls upon my head, thunder fills my veins 

Waiting for an answer to why I call your name 

Lessons learned in dying young, children falling down 

Part of me is laughing now at all the tears I've found 

Somewhere the tide is searching for a far off land 

where the people bow and pray to God hoping he understands 

(Refrain) 

Sinking to the bottom now...(darkness all around) 

Sinking to the bottom now...(nowhere to be found) 

Colder will I be tonight, never will I end this fight 

Fade away again, fade away again...(but you can see me standing here) 

Falling off the edge I see there is no other way 

It wasn't me who asked for these tears I have today 

Heaven never felt so good, hell not far behind 

So I walk into my own as all your words remind me that 

Somewhere the tide is searching for a far off land 

where people bow and pray to God hoping he understands 

(Refrain)
