lyrics

Body comes and body goes, you're always my hero. And I'll keep your stories till the next tide brings you home.

Waiting by the waves I'll be counting every one. Each crashing in your honor, martyrs moving us along. You suffered like a soldier with no trigger on his gun. No chance at glory gory days of hiding from the sun. We're all sick from something you've an extra nasty bug. It tells you to say sorry while you're hacking lovers up. And you shout out guilty while you're screaming in your sleep, but in spite of all your failures you've always been good to me.

Stories tell us what we believe in. Stories show us what we are dreaming.

You think you're such garbage wrapped around a seagull's beak. Oil in a mermaid's eyes and crap stuck in her teeth. She might hate you when she smiles but when you're smiling at me. I know you've been the best man that you possibly could be.

Stories tell us what we believe in. Stories show us what we are dreaming. You might forget. You might run empty. Your soul will live on, stories remind me.
