Lyrics

[00:00.19] The Tallest Man On Earth - To Just Grow Away
[00:03.12] .
[00:19.99] We're melting ruby hearts
[00:23.99] A confusing trade
[00:27.99] To burn the ore
[00:31.30] And to shape a blade
[00:35.18] And then to swing it low
[00:39.11] Beginner's fate
[00:42.86] To lose a skin
[00:46.42] To just grow away
[00:49.11] .
[00:50.24] Like a rain, to help a river
[00:54.58] But a river's so hard to please
[01:00.40] But I've grown to see the diamonds
[01:07.14] You've thrown in just for me
[01:10.77] .
[01:24.58] We spent so many nights
[01:28.33] Just gathering stones
[01:32.64] The silver tears
[01:35.46] And old sapphire bones
[01:39.52] And all the copper leaves
[01:43.58] Then dreamt, now true
[01:47.02] Look how they find their path
[01:51.08] To cut right through
[01:53.85] .
[01:54.79] Like a rain, to help a river
[01:58.97] But a river's so hard to please
[02:04.79] But I've grown to see the diamonds
[02:11.35] You've thrown in just for me
[02:15.91] .
[02:28.82] Look when your hopeless child will figure
[02:31.57] There are moments when hope's not
[02:34.13] Only real when flagging far down a road
[02:38.82] And with an armful broken arrows
[02:41.51] And no hand free for the bow
[02:43.94] Your kid will lose a battle
[02:46.51] But your ways will let him go
[02:50.32] .
[02:54.07] I lose my wish to drown
[02:58.07] And aimless flee
[03:01.54] And what you've thrown to lose
[03:05.72] Is still right here with me.
