lyrics

You had a choice
You had a choice, though it was not easy
You heard a voice
Calling out from a choir of angels

You awoke from your slumber, lying in a haze
You couldn’t even recognise your own face
Searching for something in the back of your mind
That downtrodden fool, that you’d left behind

Wild tales and broken hearts
When you think you’re nearly washed up
You’re just at the start
You’re singing, wild tales and broken hearts
Dreams can last forever
Just don’t tear them apart
Keep singing

You had a choice
Didn’t take the easy road, that’s for sure
You heard a voice
Love was your asylum, and you let her heal you

Now you’re waiting for a phoenix, to rise from the flames
Rebel against the dumbstruck in their whirlpool parade
Searching for a truth, in a world full of lies
The blinding sight of youth, in the sea of life

Wild tales and broken hearts
When you think you’re nearly washed up
You’re just at the start
You’re singing, wild tales and broken hearts
Dreams can last forever
Just don’t tear them apart
Keep singing

You had a choice
In the bricks of this town you made your bed
You heard a voice
In the anchor of a home, you found your answer

Recounting the years you wandered alone
Talking to the wilderness, searching the globe
Stood beneath the desert sky, trying to find the rain
You stared into the sun, and it healed your pain

Wild tales and broken hearts
When you think you’re nearly washed up
You’re just at the start
You’re singing, wild tales and broken hearts
Dreams can last forever
Just don’t tear them apart
Keep singing

Wild tales and broken hearts
When you think you’re nearly washed up
You’re just at the start
You’re singing, wild tales and broken hearts
Dreams can last forever
Just don’t tear them apart
Keep singing
