Sagres - The Tallest Man On Earth

The Tallest Man On Earth heeft een nieuw album en daaruit komt dit prachtig nummer, eindelijk ook geschikt voor wie de vergelijkingen met Bob Dylan moe is...

Je kan het album Dark bird is home hier kopen.

Lyrics:

We were travellers, so blind

Went to where the world did end

ran a dozen ways till now

So this is when we walked away

And this sadness I suppose

gonna hold me to the ground

where I'm forced to find the still

in a place you won't be 'round

Was I ever part of knowing

with your hands in mine

little screams into the wonder

And, oh, I'll (?)

come on, come on

And so here I go again

Say I want my freedom, sure

but it's like end of all the dreams

Like in my life I needed more

and this madness, I suppose

Gonna haunt me with a lie

That I could drink until I sleep

through, oh, scarier times

Was I ever part of knowing

with your hands in mine

little screams into the wonder

And, oh, I'll (?)

Come on, come on

Now was I ever going to be more than these savages in me

And still we'll sing into silence, just to silence tears

now what is left in here?

It's not the staying to see this flickering life, no

It's not me knowing what's deeper than dust, no

It's not the reason those shadows that are gone, no

It's not me knowing I'm yet to see fire

It's just all this fucking doubt

come on, come on

And this sadness I suppose

Gonna hold me to the ground

where I'm forced to find the still

in a place you won't be 'round
