Servants and Kings歌词

Through rolling hills and many miles of blood

We slept in the rainfall and marched through the mud

And you were not like anyone I'd known

You spoke with impunity had nothing to atone

And quiet evenings you told me what you thought

About servants and kings and how everyone is bought

And that no ones hands are bloodier than god's

And I won't be judged for doing as I ought

It's hard to say just when I fell in love

There was no epiphany no light from above

But you'd become my candle in the dark

And all through that hell you were the shield across my heart

When all was fire and the world was out for blood

And the boys still too young to drink were drowned in the flood

I'd hear you laughing as I'd come on out for air

And I'd laugh with you pretend I didn't care

Now twenty years have passed since the last time I saw you

When I kissed you on the mouth you walked away

I knew it'd be too much I knew that it would scare you

But I couldn't find the proper words for what I had to say

But I don't regret a thing
