Wanderlust Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I dropped my conscious and cast another stone
I took to preaching while dancing on the coals
I can't say where I've been and only god knows where I'll be
But there must be a place for a wretch like me

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, Lord knows I'm tired
But I won't rest my head until I'm home
And if my hands find themselves another body
Well, you can't blame them for trying to keep warm

[Chorus]
Morals are simply a matter of time
And where you lay your head's a question of pride
But, when it's said and done, you'll find it in the lines
That privilege and wit made me misfortune's child

[Post-Chorus]
Can't tell collapse that it needs to slow down
Can't tell death that it shouldn't come around
And when they take my head and put it on a stake
I'll know that guilt and disgrace keep the dead men awake

[Verse 2]
Bartering your vigor for a paralyzing love
What have you done?
What have you done?
I took the scaffold and laughed until I fell
Girl, if you need me, grab another from the well
I can't imagine what hell might have in store
But I know once I'm there I won't wander anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, Lord knows I'm tired
But I won't rest my head until I'm home
And if my hands find themselves another body
Well, you can't blame them for trying to keep warm
Oh, Lord knows I'm weak
But I can't clear my head if I'm asleep

[Chorus]
Morals are simply a matter of time
And where you lay your head's a question of pride
But when it's said and done, you'll find it in the lines
That privilege and wit made me misfortune's child

[Post-Chorus]
Can't tell collapse that it needs to slow down
Can't tell death that it shouldn't come around
And when they take my head and put it on a stake
I'll know that guilt and disgrace keep the dead men awake

[Bridge]
We've lived under this dark cloud forever
Waiting for the bad luck to break
Just let me try that one again
With a little more feeling
We've slept at the crossroads together
Trying to make an honest mistake
Just let me try that one more time
Without a smile on my face

Another road as empty as every promise is
If life is pointless, then point taken, say amen
So light another candle, put my body out to sea
Because your heart is no place for a wretch like me
Another stranger passing, a common dissonance
If life is pointless, then point taken, say amen
So light another candle, put my body out to sea
Because your side is no place for a wretch like me

[Outro]
When they unearth these passages
Will I appear to be proud?
Not if you're listening close enough
Not if you're sounding it out
