Hundred Waters – Currency lyrics
(You're barely human, the way you walk away)
[Verse 1]
Sovereign chain me, operate me
Overtake me only for a night
If I act cowardly
It's all the power you tower over me
Born to borrow
Hard to rescue
I can feel your arms around my spine
Give in, get out of it
The more I stand
The more that I lie down
[Verse 2]
Caesar, how'd you manage?
How'd you conquer?
Was there fever in your fight?
All rise, all rise
All testify
At best I rest at your side
Born to borrow
Hard to rescue
I can feel your arms around my spine
Give in, give out of it
The more I stand
The more that I lie down
[Chorus]
Sadness is a currency
I'll pay you every time
Indebted to you being there
While I remain stuck in my chair
Sadness is a chapel
I go there every time
In there it's free, no need to pay
Time's the only currency
Sadness is an ocean
You build up in your mind
A moat of moping
A river of rain
Collected in your spine
But feeling it in any amount
Is valuable and paramount
If loving you is to pay a toll
Then love is capital
Love is capital
Love...
[Verse 1]
Sovereign chain me, operate me
Overtake me only for a night
If I act cowardly
It's all the power you tower over me
Born to borrow
Hard to rescue
I can feel your arms around my spine
Give in, get out of it
The more I stand
The more that I lie down
[Verse 2]
Caesar, how'd you manage?
How'd you conquer?
Was there fever in your fight?
All rise, all rise
All testify
At best I rest at your side
Born to borrow
Hard to rescue
I can feel your arms around my spine
Give in, give out of it
The more I stand
The more that I lie down
[Chorus]
Sadness is a currency
I'll pay you every time
Indebted to you being there
While I remain stuck in my chair
Sadness is a chapel
I go there every time
In there it's free, no need to pay
Time's the only currency
Sadness is an ocean
You build up in your mind
A moat of moping
A river of rain
Collected in your spine
But feeling it in any amount
Is valuable and paramount
If loving you is to pay a toll
Then love is capital
Love is capital
Love...
