Blame the Ending - Anchors in the Night Lyrics

Time went by
My love and I
Drew pictures in the sands
Of our lives
Raised four boys
In apocalyptic noise
As wars raged
Across the land
With all that smoke
The battles spoke
And proudly hoisted a flag
In the breeze
Taught the past
So the fables last
Let relatives long gone
Tell their tales
Cleared some land
With cast-iron hands
Celebrating harvests
In the sun
The stones arranged
To signal change
And watch the seasons pass
From that nest
The skies are blessed
North Star shining
On the tree of life
Like an anchor in the night
Like an anchor in the night
Like an anchor in the night
Saw fashions change
And empire's rearrange
Soothed crying babies
By a creek
We wrote it down
Bone black ink poured out
Spilling details
Across time
And church bells rang
Over frosty lanes
Our hearts full of salvation
Our eyes dimmed
But wisdom lived
As generations flowed
Into existence
Time went by My love and I
Finally put down our brushes
The stones arranged
To signal change
And watch the seasons pass
From that nest
The skies are blessed
North Star shining
On the tree of life
Like an anchor in the night
Like an anchor in the night
Like an anchor in the night
