Lyrics from live performance
[Verse 1]
I'll bury the bodies with you
Now I forgive you, it’s time to ride out
And get away, away, away, away, away
From the city, mm
Unfamiliar faces at the bar
Leading to the rhythm of the swinging door
It's going down, down, down, down, down
Like the rapids of the holy, handsome river
[Pre-Chorus]
I could be the razor in your eye
You could be the blade that's got my eye
When the good old darkness comes
I will keep you safe within my heart
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
’Cause you, you are my constant companion
You know it's true
Your silly words ain't drifting through the night
For God's alone beside you to withstand
Let's ride into the sun and watch it burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
[Verse 2]
Can you hear them calling in the distance? (Ooh)
The thunder's drunk and the moon has stolen my dreams (Ooh)
The love of my eyes won't have four walls or fences
There's only what we need, all we need
Some of the things we trust our head and eyes
I’m looking at the top of the tree inside
All you are is all I need
Hold the light that shines within your eyes
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
’Cause you, you are my constant companion
You know it's true
Your silly words ain’t drifting through the night
Let's ride into the sun and watch it burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
[Bridge]
Oh-oh
You know it's true
You know it's true
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
Oh, oh
’Cause you, you are my constant companion
You know it's true
Your silly words ain't drifting through the night
For God's alone beside you to withstand
Let's ride into the sun and watch it burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
