High as Pride Lyrics by Echolyn

Cowboy Poems Free

0

We had crossed our lines and dug in
On fields that once were green
Rushing and falling, our conscience in our ears
We won the war and floated
High as pride can climb
Home across the ocean to find all our gods were dead

In our eyes shines nothing
But youth and all its flame
Feeding on itself as if the devil may care
In an axiom is religion
"To eat, drink, and be merry"
We danced on the altar "for tomorrow we die"

Everything's been figured, but figured wrong
The good time rags are all gone
Everything's been figured, but figured wrong
My "Oxford Bags" are all worn

"At 18 our convictions are hills from which we look
At 45, they're caves into which we hide"
I was high as pride can climb, climbing to salvation
No one was saved and no one born again

Everything's been figured, but figured wrong
The good time rags are all gone
Everything's been figured, but figured wrong
My "Oxford Bags" are all worn

In the meantime, in between time
In the meantime, in between time
In the meantime, in between time

In the meantime, in between time
In the meantime, in between time
In the meantime, in between time

In the meantime, in between time
In the meantime, in between time
In the meantime, in between time

In the meantime, in between time
In the meantime, in between time
In the meantime, in between time

In the meantime
In the meantime
In the meantime, oh

In the meantime
In the meantime
In the meantime, oh
