Pilgrims

If this was another time

You'd've been one of the holy kind

Clasping hands and talking soft to the night

Rising up a pilgrim on the road

Begging bread for your bowl

Waking from this dream you're in now

Where you just scroll and scroll

Just give me patience, just give me strength

Just let me taste that sweetness again

I know it's waiting, I feel it just around the bend

Just give me patience, I'll get to it yet

If this was another time

I'd be coughing in the mine

But here we are now getting on a plane

And feeling bored in the sky

As wildfires take the west

You put the eye mask on your eyes

Was there some summer in my youth

Before I knew what was dying?

You're always leaving

Running out of time

You're always leaving

Yeah, running out of time

You're always leaving

Yeah, but you never arrive

Just give me patience, just give me strength

Just let me taste that sweetness again

It's out there waiting, and I can see it if I squint

Just give me patience, I'll get to it yet

Just give me patience, just give me strength

Just let me taste that sweetness again

Sweetness again

Sweetness again
