The Staves - Dead & Born & Grown lyrics

rate me

Colours fade away

And things that were aren’t here today

But time, it doesn’t matter anymore

I'll meet you where we were before

And I’ll stay the same and stand here on my own

‘Til everything is dead and born and grown

Just go at your own pace

As you slip and tumble down from grace

We’re safe in one anothers’ company

I need you just as much as you need me

And I’ll stay the same and stand here on my own

‘Til everything is dead and born and grown

Pieces set to fall

Am I here at all?

As a little child may learn

To sit or stand or wait his turn

The things you know will slowly slip away

All we have is here and now, today

And I’ll stay the same and stand here on my own

‘Til everything is dead and born and grown

‘Til everything is dead and born and grown

Pieces set to fall

Am I here at all?

Pieces set in stone

Dead and born and grown
