lyrics

RIALTO

I could never escape this landscape with its markers
Why should I be afraid of deals we made in our darkest years?
As we watch from our perch
You leave the shore with your cargo
Our feet deep in the mud
And our fingers dig into the earth that we’ve loved
But we know we’re losing time, we’re losing time

Rialto you can sail away
We fools have had enough…

Like a tribe gone mad
We give our blood
We give our fathers
But this deal has grown old
We count the years until its spoils will unfold
Like the hottest sun you give us gold and we’re broken
Now our chance has been sold
We will shine
We won’t fade
We will never be safe

I drink the water
I eat the dirt to prove they still bear fruit
I drink the water
I eat the dirt to prove they don’t bear you

Rialto you can sail away
We fools have had enough
Rialto you can sail today
Our seas will not be rough
Rialto if you sail today
Our winds will set you free
Rialto if you sail today
You’ll be the death of me

Rialto you can sail away
We fools have had enough
Rialto you can sail today
We fools have had enough
Rialto sail away
