Slaid Cleaves - Nature's Darker Laws şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Slaid Cleaves

albüm: Together Through the Dark


Ancient mountains sleep below the gentle sway of pines
Where ancient traumas linger in the murky mists of time
Where some men claim to carry on a lost, alluring cause
Their better angels ever led astray
By nature's darker laws
See the man, from humble home he goes to work each day
Until he's told a stranger soon will take his job away
The sun goes down, and in his heart a quiet anger gnaws
In his veins there runs the quickened blood
Of nature's darker laws
You must go on, our Father said, Your faith will see you through
And all day long he trudges on, he wants it to be true
But when he hears the demagogue, the rapturous applause
He's found the voice that fills the emptiness
With nature's darker laws
On every screen the fear and blame is all that he can see
The nightly news, it shows him how to see his enemy
The radio, it feeds the lies the grievances because
There's money to be made by tapping in
To nature's darker laws
He holds a gun and feels he's in control for the first time
His captain yells that fighting for your country is no crime
He joins the crowd and holds a flag that stands for what once was
In violence he's found a brotherhood
Through nature's darker laws

Ancient mountains sleep below the gentle sway of pines
Where ancient traumas linger in the murky mists of time
Where some men claim to carry on a lost, alluring cause
Their better angels ever led astray
By nature's darker laws
By nature's darker laws
