lyrics

Attuned myself to the comfort of a stranger
Turned my face to light from distant star
Planted love
But your love outgrew me
and now I know who all those strangers are
Aligned myself to the fortunes of the lowly
and now I keep the company of Cain
Took my stand
but my stand outstood me
still a man keeps standing, just the same

Had a lot of of love
and a lot of love she took
like the river take a child
like the flames will take a book
had a lot of love
and a lot of love I gave
a black star taking light
and a battlefield the brave

Resigned myself to callow creature comforts
Staring at the axe I’ll never grind
Took my time til my time outran me
Now I search for something I can’t find

Now I keep the company of cain
