The Motherlode - The Staves

Counting the winters

 

Numb to the cold

 

Searching the valley

 

For secrets untold

 

The mountains are children

 

To someone so old

 

A king without kingdom or throne

 

Digging the mud and the stone

 

All men have left here

 

But you have remained

 

At the banks of the river

 

Forever the same

 

Though no water flows here

 

The memory stays

 

As long as it stays you are here

 

Heartbroken year after year

 

People running away

 

Running like strangers

 

Day after day

 

Leave him alone

 

Golden river running from her home

 

The sun was an altar

 

Before which he knelt

 

And raised up the dagger

 

That hung from his belt

 

He cursed his delusion

 

And the sadness he felt

 

Weeping at what he'd become

 

Just a fool in the gold of the sun

 

People running away

 

Running like strangers

 

Day after day

 

Leave him alone

 

Golden river running from her home

 

Golden river running from her home

 

Golden river running from her home

 

 

Golden river running from her home
