Two Coins Lyrics

by City and Colour

(Verse)
Northwest is where I'm headed,
Underneath the golden sky.
I'm searching for a wisdom,
That every man seeks to find.

(Verse)
I've got wicked thoughts a-brewing,
Many evil deeds I've done.
I'm looking for a reason,
For a reason not to run.

(Chorus)
'Cause I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.

(Verse)
I've got no destination,
No place to call my own.
I explore the constellations,
Till I find the cause I mean to hold.

(Verse)
But come fever or come famine,
Come the biting winter cold,
Just put two coins upon my eyelids,
So I can pay the boatman's toll.

(Chorus)
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.

(Bridge)
I've been so unforgiving,
Stranded in old traditions.
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.

(Chorus)
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.

(Bridge)
I've been so unforgiving,
Stranded in old traditions.
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.
