lyrics

Blame me for the wings that won't grow
Blame me for the desert we've become

my king has gone to hell, and I by his side

Blame me for the river gone dry
Blame me as the truth begins to fade

My king has gone to hell, and I by his side

Gone from home; again, from home
Well, damned be the wind that made you cry
My king has gone to hell…

Blame me for a god who won’t speak
Blame me for the words you can't hear
Blame me for the mercy I'll deny
Blame me you'll never know what I've done

My king has gone to hell,

And I by his side - oh man
I'm tired of sleep - oh god
And I by his side - oh man
My enemy is near and there's no-one to hear my side or follow me

Gone from home; again, from home
Well damned be the wind that made me cry
My king has gone to hell,
away From home again

I'm still the hopes and dreams of those who sleep
I'm still the life you wish you had kept
Damned be the wind that made me cry
My king, my king my king
