Flogging Molly - Life Begins and Ends (But Never Fails) lyrics
[Flogging Molly - Life Begins and Ends But Never Fails lyrics]
More is the plenty of a
Life just shy of empty
As a nation drowns beneath a restless sky
The boats, they all be sailin'
But our sadness mocks the wavin’
As a breeze, with vengeance
Blows against the tide
But to the shore we love
Grows smaller with each sigh
And we all know we're
Goin', every sister, child, and brother
Not all of us who wander find a way
From County Wexford onward to
Manchester and London
America looks further by the day
This life begins and ends but it never fails
We’re passin' ships, we hunger
Our bellies cry with thunder
As death becomes the beauty of the frail
But savage hearts remember these
Stolen lives they plundered
Awake me now before the end's in sight
Oh, nevermore to hear these
Graves become alive
And we all know we're
Goin', every sister, child, and brother
Not all of us who wander find a way
From County Wexford onward to
Manchester and London
America looks further by the day
This life begins and ends but it never fails
What could we do, oh, what could we do?
But raise a smile to
Justify these blackened hearts
What could we do, oh, what could we do?
But sail away from the wolves that
Preyed in his famine ships, we flew
What could we do, oh, what could we do?
Sail away!
And we all know we're
Goin', every sister, child, and brother
Not all of us who wander find a way
From County Wexford onward to
Manchester and London
America looks further by the day
This life begins and ends but it never fails
Oh, this life begins and ends
But it never fails and we all know we're
Goin’, every sister, child, and brother
Not all of us who wander find a way
Life just shy of empty
As a nation drowns beneath a restless sky
The boats, they all be sailin'
But our sadness mocks the wavin’
As a breeze, with vengeance
Blows against the tide
But to the shore we love
Grows smaller with each sigh
And we all know we're
Goin', every sister, child, and brother
Not all of us who wander find a way
From County Wexford onward to
Manchester and London
America looks further by the day
This life begins and ends but it never fails
We’re passin' ships, we hunger
Our bellies cry with thunder
As death becomes the beauty of the frail
But savage hearts remember these
Stolen lives they plundered
Awake me now before the end's in sight
Oh, nevermore to hear these
Graves become alive
And we all know we're
Goin', every sister, child, and brother
Not all of us who wander find a way
From County Wexford onward to
Manchester and London
America looks further by the day
This life begins and ends but it never fails
What could we do, oh, what could we do?
But raise a smile to
Justify these blackened hearts
What could we do, oh, what could we do?
But sail away from the wolves that
Preyed in his famine ships, we flew
What could we do, oh, what could we do?
Sail away!
And we all know we're
Goin', every sister, child, and brother
Not all of us who wander find a way
From County Wexford onward to
Manchester and London
America looks further by the day
This life begins and ends but it never fails
Oh, this life begins and ends
But it never fails and we all know we're
Goin’, every sister, child, and brother
Not all of us who wander find a way
