Midlake - In the Ground lyrics
[Midlake - In the Ground lyrics]
So in the ground
In frozen wood the father lies
And all the wrongs he'd ever
Tried were put to rest
Bore but two sons to follow him
Both wrestled long, but younger wins
After long winter's gone
Seems that all is well, all is well
And the rose wakens now
In the joyful air, in the sun
There among the ruined ones
Are those who've played
And those who've sung
While the end remains unseen
Let us play, let us sing
Bring the town from all her cries
From her wounds, from her sighs
And she'll try mending all she can
So in the ground
In frozen wood the father lies
And all the wrongs he'd ever
Tried were put to rest
Bore but two sons to follow him
Both wrestled long, but younger wins
In frozen wood the father lies
And all the wrongs he'd ever
Tried were put to rest
Bore but two sons to follow him
Both wrestled long, but younger wins
After long winter's gone
Seems that all is well, all is well
And the rose wakens now
In the joyful air, in the sun
There among the ruined ones
Are those who've played
And those who've sung
While the end remains unseen
Let us play, let us sing
Bring the town from all her cries
From her wounds, from her sighs
And she'll try mending all she can
So in the ground
In frozen wood the father lies
And all the wrongs he'd ever
Tried were put to rest
Bore but two sons to follow him
Both wrestled long, but younger wins
