St. George Lyrics

Dear Saint we miss you so
Where do all the legends go?
Dear Saint we miss you so
Where do all the legends go?
We were told you were real weren't you so?

Who would you die for? Who would you die for?
List their names in the stars
Who would you lie for? Who would you lie for?
Is she laying in your arms?
Sweet summer sweat like you could never forget
I'm gonna figure this out
Before we all close our eyes and drift into the night

It's been said he was the bravest elephant
Don't let 'em fool ya or try to school ya
Just be yourself and no one else
And when we meet again I'll be the bravest elephant

Who would you die for? Who would you die for?
List their names in the stars
Who would you lie for? Who would you lie for?
Is she laying in your arms?
Sweet summer sweat, like you could never forget
I'm gonna figure this out
Before we all close our eyes and drift into the night

Who would you die for? Who would you die for?
List their names in the stars
Who would you lie for? Who would you lie for?
Is she laying in your arms?
Sweet summer sweat, like you could never forget
I'm gonna figure this out
Before we all close our eyes and drift into the night

Dear Saint we miss you so
Where do all the legends go?

What is the Meaning of St. George?

Gather 'round, lyric lovers, as we unravel the enigmatic fable of a modern-day knight named after a legendary saint. This tune delves into the myth of St. George, sneakily weaving a tapestry of existential musings akin to a psychedelic elephant march. We're serenaded with questions: Who's worth making Nebula-worthy constellations for? Who gets the coveted pillow space? 🌌 The "bravest elephant" symbolizes our quest for uniqueness amidst the mundane. With summer's sweat as a nostalgic trigger, it’s a clarion call to seek purpose before we slip into the sleepy embrace of night.
