The Balance Songtext
von Floating Action

At dawn there was a tremor
Below the cavernous wind-picked sky
Coughing through talk and pipe smoke
Reveals the entrance to a mine
The balance keeps it from breaking
They passed in beards and moleskins
Beneath a curtain but out of shape

The balance keeps it from breaking


I loved you then
There′s stains and holes on the scarlet gown
That devours suitors then turns to dust
The balance keeps it from breaking
I loved you then

The balance keeps it from breaking

Come back with nest of lark heads
Rather than words come thoughts of disgust

The balance keeps it from breaking
I loved you then
The balance keeps it from breaking

The balance bends before us
Seeking refuge as daylight breaks
