The Frames - None But I lyrics
[The Frames - None But I lyrics]
Who brought the pillars down
Who made an empty promise of my town
Who rose to meet the morning
Who learned the river’s name
Who told us our blood was not the same
Who set the heart's a reeling
Who lead the push and shove
Who told us that our best was not enough
Oh not me said the one in waiting
Not me said the rising tide
Not me said the dying martyr no not I
Who kept the blooded arrows
The relics and the shepherd's staff
Who turned the true believer
To the fatted calf
Who knew before we started
How this would all play out
Who took the sense of reason from our minds
Oh not me said the solider marching
Not me said the bluer blood
Not me said the givers of beauty no not us
Oh no me said the great homecoming
Not me said the dying light
Not me said the fading empire
It's none but I
None but I
Who made an empty promise
Who left us where we stand who knew the
Who wrote the book of changes
Who takes the others down
Who hung the flag of empire above our town
None but I
Always remember always remember, you said
