The Felix Culpa - The Constant video free download

you were the constant in me

the branch to my falling leaf

as i recall the ways that i was once held by this tree

and it stays with me

where i lay, windblown as such

a far cry from the place where i know we touched

peace be still, my son find peace

(i built all these bridges from rotted beams

to narrow the span between reprieves)

and it takes all i have just to sit and breathe

but i'll trade up my lungs for your company

and i'll take what i can from what's offered me

you asked me to meet you in the middle, my love

but waves can't reclaim the sea,

they're just spat back to the beach, and left to leave their footprints as foam

inches from what they once called home

peace be still, my son find peace

(i built all these bridges from rotted beams

to narrow the span between reprieves)

your melody was like a science to me

and i once was the fire in your poetry

but it seems that you left that, along with me

your melody was like a science to me

a thin skin stretched over a frail machine

and between you and me, we can barely breath
