The Dear Hunter - Vital Vessels Vindicate lyrics

Salt in the sky in the sweet
Summer air while mammoths depart
Abandon despair with thirsty affairs
Of the heart but the chances of escaping
My heart are inadequate
And when all is said and done
I'm left with my history

Goodbye, my eyes shed heavy tears
One for every soul still sitting on
The fence between pain and arrogance

Ebb to the left, flow to the right
The exit's unflawed the boys on the train
The almighty tongue with prose
Spilled in vain

Goodbye, my eyes shed heavy tears
One for every soul still sitting on
The fence between pain and arrogance

We fall beneath the sea of dreams
And fail to breathe, until we resurface
We fall beneath the sea of dreams
And fail to breathe, until we awaken again

Sing softly, sing me to
The lake, sing softly, bring me to the lake
(The flame is gone, the fire remains)
Sing softly, sing me to
The lake, sing softly, bring me to the lake
(The flame is gone, the fire remains)
Sing softly, sing me to the lake, sing
Softly, bring me to the lake, sing
(The flame is gone, the fire remains)

Through all of this I've felt just the same
The flame is gone, the fire remains
