歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Climbing up the rusty rungs Old air in my lungs Three generations of this trade Watching how the colors fade Gold leaf on a silver sky Asking all the reasons why [Pre-Chorus] The wind hums a lonesome tune Underneath a morning moon Brushes dipped in sky and slate I'm just running twenty years late [Chorus] It’s the wire that holds the fence It’s the heart that pays the rents Quiet hands and hidden names Keeping up the dying flames We’re all leaning on a ghost The ones who love the quietest most [Verse] Saw Old Miller by the gate He’s still teaching how to wait Handed me a folded sheet Crinkled paper, bittersweet A receipt from ninety-six A broken life he tried to fix [Pre-Chorus] He nodded once and walked away Nothing left for him to say The town looks small from up here Everything is coming clear [Chorus] It’s the wire that holds the fence It’s the heart that pays the rents Quiet hands and hidden names Keeping up the dying flames We’re all leaning on a ghost The ones who love the quietest most [Bridge] He never said a single word The loudest thing I ever heard Eighteen years of carrying on Before the light was even gone He painted me a future path A simple man’s silent math [Solo] [Chorus] It’s the wire that holds the fence It’s the heart that pays the rents Quiet hands and hidden names Keeping up the dying flames We’re all leaning on a ghost The ones who love the quietest most [Post-Chorus] Gravity and grace Holding up this place Gravity and grace Keeping us in space [Outro]
