lyrics

We mine the past, digging up old bones
Should be no surprise that they’ve turned to oil
Our thoughts are plain as your tear-stained face
And the oil turns to flame

Woman, you need to know
I couldn’t let you go
Until we die

Surrounded by so many shattered bones
What you thought such a prize was just painted gold
I never claimed to be a perfect man
Let me just speak my mind

Woman, you need to know
I couldn’t let you go, until we die

Speak soft
Speak slow
I know, you know

Relax
Breathe slow
I know, you know

We mine the past in search of our lost gold
What was once such a find now lies plain and cold
The tomes of past are just filled with names
Why are we so blind?

Woman, you need to know
I couldn’t let you go
Until we die
