Feel the Tide by Mumford and Sons

She sits him down in a stiff chair
Rubs his back and strokes his hair
Telling him it's okay to cry

But he just sits and stares

x

The merciless moon outside
Has nothing now he's come to realize
Only the desolation he feels
The cold distance inside

x

But you and I now
We can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now
Though it's cold inside
Feel the tide turning

x

While the priest just sits and weeps
Lamenting the fact that he can see
Darkness and light in so much detail
He has given himself over

x

Refusing what he knows to be real
He turns away from every meal
Starving himself of goodness
He doesn't think he can heal

x

But you and I now
We can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now
Though it's cold inside
Feel the tide turning

"What if I lost all I had?"
Said the stranger to his dad
And the witness was confused
He can't tell what is bad

x

Instead he runs up to the nearest girl
And he comments on her glorious curls
Says, "Darling come with me
I'll show you a whole new world."

x

But you and I now
We can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now
Though it's cold inside
Feel the tide turning
