Honey on our Tongues - Every Link Lyrics

This heart don't beat for what people here adore
These eyes don't care for what they flock to see
So I'm going on the mountain, gonna' lay awake until
I'll be lifted up into the sun
Where death forgets my name

'Cause I've tasted bitter sorrow and the sweetness of joy
Enough times to know both only come to leave
So I'm building my home on the rock of ages
Where the wind and rain won't blow and pour
To rob my soul of peace

Can't you hear 'em now
They're knockin' at your door

Free yourself of every link of chain you've made
And lay your burdens down in the grave
Brother, won't you walk in light with me

These strings don't ring for what people here adore
And it's either them or me who's gone insane
But I refuse to follow the blind and unsmiling
Into a life of pain, no matter how much fame or money might be made

It's a high and lonesome road to the end of misery
But I know my Lord will be waiting there for me
So I'll endure until the very last day
When I'll be lifted up into the sun
Where death forgets my name

Can't you hear him now
He's knockin' at your door

Free yourself of every link of chain you've made
And lay your burdens down in the grave
Sister, won't you walk in light with me

Free yourself of every link of chain you've made
And lay your burdens down in the grave
Oh won't you walk in light with me
