Steve Evetts - Wanderlust lyrics

I've drowned my conscience and cast another stone I took to preaching while dancing on the code I can't see where I've been and only God knows where I'll be But there must be a place for a wretch like me Oh, Lord knows I'm tired But I, I, 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 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 in the light That privilege and wit make me misfortune's child Can't tell collapse that it needs to slow down Can't tell d**h that it shouldn't come around And when they take my head and put it on a stake I know that guilt and disgrace keep the dead man awake Bartering your figure for a paralyzing love What have you done? What have you done? I tipped the scaffold and laughed until I fell Girl if you need me, grab another from the well I can't imagine what hell has in store But I know if I'm there I won't wander anymore Oh, Lord knows I'm tired But I, I, 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, I, I can't clear my head if I'm asleep Morals are simply a matter of tide And where you lay your head's a question of pride But when it's said and done you'll find in the light That privilege and wit make me misfortune's child Can't tell collapse that it needs to slow down Can't tell d**h that it shouldn't come around And when they take my head and put it on a stake I know that guilt and disgrace keep the dead man awake We've lived under this dark cloud forever Waited for the bad light to break Just let me tell that one again With a little more feeling We slept at the crossroads together Tried to make a honest mistake Just let me tell that one more time Without a smile on my face And now the road is empty As every promise is If life is pointless then point taken, say amen So light another candle and point my body out to sea Because your heart is no place for a wretch like me Another stranger pa**ing A common dissonance If life is pointless then point taken, say Amen So light another candle and point my body out to sea Because your side is no place for a wretch like me When they unearth these pa**ages Will I appear to be proud? Not if you're listening close enough Not if you're sounding it out
