The The - We Can't Stop What's Coming Lyrics

So here you live
Trapped inside the days
Your pen moving across the page
Back to where?
It has begun
Uncoiled
Unspun
What you were what you will become
The days setting with the sun
Wake up it's time to go
The taste of tears still in your throat
Silence from your songs
Reminds us - when you are gone
We can't hate the river for flowing
Can't blame the wild wind blowin'
Can't slow the time from running
We can't stop what's coming
The bonfire is burning
The birds returning
An owl by night

A mourning crow
Inside a shadow that grows
A darkness in the darkness
A stranger on the shore
Outside of your windo
Knockin' on your door
When there is rain it pours
' Till there is no pain no more
Wake up it's time to go
The taste of tears still in your throat
Silence from your songs
Reminds us when you are gone
We can't hate the river for
Flowing
Cant blame the wild wind blowin'
Cant slow time from running
We can't stop what's coming
Wake up it's time to go
The taste of tears still in your throat
Silence from your songs
Reminds us when you are gone
We can't hate the river for
Flowing
Can't blame the wild wind blowin'
Can't slow time from running
We can't stop what's coming
