You And Me Of The 10,000 Wars
Indigo Girls Song Lyrics
Words and Music: Emily Saliers You and me of the 10,000 wars Dividing life into factions of pleasures and chores A bed to be made and a bed to lie in A hand in the darker side And our sights set on Zion The heart of a skeptic and the mind of a child Put my life in a box And let my imagination run wild Pour the cement from my feet The heart and the mind on a parallel course Never the two shall meet And all the dissatisfied with the satisfied Everybody loves a melodrama and a scandal of lies But still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes Still water Try making one and one make one Twist the shapes until everything comes undone Watch the wizard behind the curtain The larger than life and the power of seeming certain The evil ego and the vice of pride Is there ever anything else that can make us take our different sides I wanted everything to feed me Bout as full as I got of myself and the Upper echelons of mediocrity And all the dissatisfied with the satisfied Everybody loves a melodrama and a scandal of lies But still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes Still water (still water) Still water (still water) After the battle and we're still around Everything once up in the air has settled down Sweep the ashes, let the silence find us The moment of peace is worth every war behind us You and me of the 10,000 wars |
