Blitzen Trapper - Destroyer of the Void lyrics

Here's to the Lone and Wayward son
For to love is to leave
For to run like a rolling stone
I fell in with men who were wicked in the end
As we roam by and by
So these crimes multiply, yeah

See this wayward son, boy
May you live to run another day
Dark is the heart and dreams will come
To the swift and the dead
To the poor and the wayward son
My love can't you see just
What's happening to me
All I touch turns to sand
Slipping out through my hand, yeah

I can see the future in your eyes
Shining like a million skies over all
Over all my petty crimes I perpetrate
I know you should hate me
But you celebrate me
Every time I'm on your side
My eyes open wide
The future's wingin' like a bird
Out over the void
And all my petty crimes and curses
They are destroyed

I know you should hate me, but you elevate me
Up into the stratosphere, I no longer care
That I am terrified, alright
Yet you are the cure
'Cause all my petty crimes and curses
They disappear

I can feel the future in your skin
Catch the spirit's as they spin all around
All around my petty crimes I perpetrate
I know you should hate me
But you rearrange me
Comin' off the startin' line
A hammer and twine
The future's wingin' like a bird
Out over the void
And all my petty crimes and curses
They are destroyed

Now, a serpent spoke to me
He was hanging from a pale and nameless tree
Upon the plain, where the gods are all insane
His voice was like the wind that blows
A thousand crows all rising into flight
Upon the night, alright, look out

So, now, I left him in his tree
Stole some horses
Took the road that runs in circles to the sea
But, the snake, he followed me
So I hopped a ship, a silver seed
Past galaxies and stars we
Speed, to endless planets, worlds unknown

Where will you go when our love's gone?
When this world of ours is nothing
More than a long lost song?
This road that we're on
Is it where we both belong?
As the years disappear
Will you wait for me here?

See this wayward son, boy
May you live to run another day
