Even If We Try - Night Beds

Even if we try

Even if we try

To make ourselves alright

To mend our severed lies

Well all the rivers rage

Descend upon the stage

Running melodies

I lift my voice to sing

Oohooh…

Holding to the past

Clouding in my glass

Lever on my youth

Remember what is true

As you watch the colors

Fleeting with the cover

Nature set on fire

Truth found in the mire.

Oohooh…

Stumbling down the hillside

In the waning moon light

Give me, calling

And wailing on the doldrums

Had ourselves a lonesome night,

Passed over

Down long hollow road

It’s wilting, winding bones

Come on Johnny please, won’t you speak to me?

Oohooh…

Oohooh…

Oohooh…
