Great Grandpa - Dark Green Water lyrics
[Great Grandpa - Dark Green Water lyrics]
All things fade into dark green
Water down by the lake
Mistakes were made and that's the
Heart of this pain
But I'll rejoice, I won't give anything
But forgiveness once you have
The courage to explain
I learned this phrase from my father
He said "no perfection can ever bring joy"
Or, "there's none without it"
Like a life that has a start but no end
All aspiring comes with equal consequence
Like some things we abuse and
The joys they prevent
But I'll numb or stall I'll
Fall and pretend that
Dark water will cloak all our deepest intent
I said, you got this heart from your Mother
She bears all our suffering through the
Longest of years, too long lately
Like a life that has a start but no end
I fear flawless life in a pure sense hold
On best I can to a space where:
All things fade into dark green
Water down by the lake
Mistakes were made and that's the
Heart of this pain but I'll reflect
I won't ask anything but forgiveness once
I have the courage to explain
Water down by the lake
Mistakes were made and that's the
Heart of this pain
But I'll rejoice, I won't give anything
But forgiveness once you have
The courage to explain
I learned this phrase from my father
He said "no perfection can ever bring joy"
Or, "there's none without it"
Like a life that has a start but no end
All aspiring comes with equal consequence
Like some things we abuse and
The joys they prevent
But I'll numb or stall I'll
Fall and pretend that
Dark water will cloak all our deepest intent
I said, you got this heart from your Mother
She bears all our suffering through the
Longest of years, too long lately
Like a life that has a start but no end
I fear flawless life in a pure sense hold
On best I can to a space where:
All things fade into dark green
Water down by the lake
Mistakes were made and that's the
Heart of this pain but I'll reflect
I won't ask anything but forgiveness once
I have the courage to explain
