Church - Constant In Opal lyrics

rate me

Me and the puzzled travelers<br />

We searched the ground for wealth<br />

And scoured the dreaming valleys<br />

On days where shadows melt<br />

Digging for the blue and the green<br />

Constant in opal or ultramarine<br />

If you could only find yourself that way<br />

And dust was my companion<br />

And thirst caked all our words<br />

Unearthing nearly nothing<br />

We swarmed like carrion birds<br />

Some for fortune, some for greed<br />

Some for want, some for need<br />

If you could only find yourself that way<br />

In hearts suspicion flowers<br />

In hands numb with jealousy<br />

Sleepwalking lightning showers<br />

Transform effortlessly<br />

Thinking of all that I left behind<br />

Down in the shaft when my mind was blind<br />

But you couldn't even find yourself that way
