Lord Huron

Well, the neon lights glowed red and gold I came to hear my fortune told Can't imagine what she saw I'm gazing in her crystal ball Far out past the astral plane I cast you back from whence you came Cosmic ash and blackened brain I call you by your anci...

Gone are the days of laughter and love Gone, baby, gone, we've all had enough Carry on and spend all your dough Take it down to the ground and sink me below I scream and shout like this Just to prove to the world that I still exist I don't believe in l...

I came back from the edge, where you go when you die I fell back down to earth through a hole in the sky I crashed into the sea, then somehow I survived Don’t know what to believe, but I know I’m alive Back from the edge I was nearly destroyed when I lo...

How long have I known you, brother Hundreds of lives, thousands of years How many miles have we wandered Under the sky, chasing our fear Some kind of trouble is coming Don't know when, don't know what I will stand by you, brother 'Til the daylight come...

What I remember the most is hollering her name and the sirens wail as we ran like hell down a strange trail Oh, I wanna know what I did. I wanna know her game. I wanna learn her wits, and how she plays her tricks, oh, I gotta know. Lots of booze an...

Yellow lines in the dead of the night, I was heading back out west. Trying to keep my eyes open wide, I'd gone days without any rest. Saw him lying in the road looking bad about 20 yards ahead. You come back from a trip to the east but you don't come back f...

Here by the lake, what a vision you are In the light of the emerald star I’ve come for you, my love Through a window in the dark Don’t you know you’re my everything? If I lost you, I think I would die Was everything you said just a lie? You never loved...

Ooh, ooh Oh, there's a river that winds on forever I'm gonna see where it leads Oh, there's a mountain that no man has mounted I'm gonna stand on the peak Out there's a land that time don't command Wanna be the first to arrive No time for ponderin' wh...

I'm leaving this place behind, and I'm heading out on the road tonight. I'm off for the hinterlands, way up north where the tall trees stand. Before I commence my ride, I'm askin Lily to be my bride. I know there's another man but he ain't gonna delay my pl...

Deep into the night with the moonlight as my guide I go wander through the pines and make my way to nature's shrines and I look up to the sky and I know you're still alive, but I wonder where you are I call your name into the dark. I wake up in the mornin...

I get a thrill out of playing with fire Cause you hold your life when you hold that flame I get a kick out of thunder and lightning Tearin' through the night hollerin' your name I get a laugh out of starin' at darkness And wonderin' why people live in the...

I wanna live in a land of lakes Where the great waves break And the night runs right into the day I wanna be with the ones I left But I'm way out west And the years keep on slipping away I wanna run on the sacred dunes Through the ancient ruins Where t...

You've been gone for a long long time You've been in the wind, you've been on my mind You are the purest soul I've ever known in my life Take your time, let the rivers guide you in You know where you can find me again I'll be waiting here 'til the stars fall...

Tell our family I had to leave I'm going away Tell our friends for me They all agree That I gotta get out of here Gonna sail that boat right into the sun Cuz everybody knows that's how it's done Now don't you cry and don't you wait If I meet my end,...

What you're looking for won't be found easily It grows upon the mountains in a sacred place Up beyond the clouds and ancient grounds so they say And many men have died trekking up that way Once he's gazed upon her a man's forever changed The bravest men r...

Minor changes and grammar I land on an island coast Where the only souls I see are ghosts I run through a wooded isle And I chase the sunlight mile after mile And I feel like I know this place As the tree line breaks into wide-open space I stare at a bright re...

Lost in time and space Aimless drifting into a far off place Hurtling through the vast unknown Staring straight into the pure, black void Drowning in the sea of stars Lost in a galaxy of cocktail bars Blinded by the neon lights I lie awake and say your...

Good for nothing is the name they'll remember me by done nothin' with my life for no one, I'm just waiting to die I turned my back on the world you know I'd given up on livin' til I met you girl Then you came into my life with come hither in your eyes Pu...

Yes, I know that love is like ghosts. Oh, few have seen it but everybody talks. Spirits follow everywhere I go. Oh, they sing all day and they haunt me in the night. Oh, they sing all day and they haunt me in the night. Yes, I know that love is like ghos...

You arrive along with the sun Where have you been darlin'? What have you done? You were out finding trouble again There's a fire in your eyes and there's blood on your hands Come inside and lie down to sleep You ain't gonna run and you know that you're beat R...

I took a little journey to the unknown, and I've come back changed and I can feel it in my bones. I fucked with the forces that our eyes can't see. Now the darkness got a hold on me. Oh, the darkness got a hold on me. How long baby have I been away? Oh,...

You were a wild thing when you were younger, stomping through the jungle. You were mighty and you were stronger but I bow no longer. All your temples will lie in ruin once I ravage through them. All your rivals will not go near you but I do not fear you. W...

I had a dream that you came to me shining down Through the clouds like a moonbeam There you were And you wore nothing more than your raven hair In the air like a moonbeam Here you were And you pulled me from a nightmare With your eyes and your silver t...

I will wake her in the morning Once the dew has dried I will say it to her face “You’re a conjured lie; a figment of my mind Baby, I don’t mind Are you dead or are you alive?” She was gone without a warning Long before the sunrise I will paint the pe...

I sit alone in the dark, and I try to remember The words you spoke when you summoned the Ender You chained my life to an ancient master Will the curse be reversed if I say it backwards? What you crossed was a line at the edge of the void And you can’t c...

I've been waiting for you to come Staring out at the setting sun You've been running 'round again With that boy you call your friend And it's driving me insane Does he make you say his name? And you can't get it off your tongue Little girl, you are not...

I've been through the desert And I've been across the sea I've been walking through the mountains I've wandered through the trees For her I have been trying to find her Want to give what I got She lit a fire But now she's in my every thought Where, could tha...

Oh there was a time when she'd lie in the grass and imagine the places she'd never go. And there all alone she would pleasure herself with thoughts of a man she would never know. Lying there, she made a promise that one day she'd run and she'd find just the...

Heaven never ever heard a word I said I’ve cried enough to raise the dead “Everything comes and goes,” they say Here tomorrow, gone today Heaven won’t let me in, I don’t know why No one ever loved half as much as I Everyone’s a sinner in the balancer’s...

I'm just a man but I know that I'm damned All the dead seem to know where I am Till it began on the night of my birth We'll be done in a turn of the earth Lie where I land let my bones turn to sand I was born on the lake and I don't want to leave Every eye on...

I said we're all gonna die but I'll never believe it I love this world and I don't wanna leave it Said that death is a deal that you cannot refuse But I love you girl and I don't wanna lose you Don't want a long ride I don't wanna die at all I wanna be the ma...

I am not the only traveler who has not repaid his debt I've been searching for a trail to follow again take me back to the night we met and then I can tell myself what the hell I'm supposed to do and then I can tell myself not to ride along with you...

I have come to speak with you about your daughter. She's no girl, she's a woman sir. If she wants to go and see the world she oughtta. You have kept her here for twenty years alone. But I'll have you know she's fully grown, and she sure knows just what she...

I can't trust anyone, no anything these days If you are who you say you are then show me your face Came out of the ocean like you came out of a dream Your voice it sounds familiar but you are not what you seem All words of comfort can not take away my doubt I...

I had a name but they took it from me I was the man that I wanted to be I had a place where I lay my head They burnt it to the ground and the sky turned red I had a life and a place in the world I had a sweet talkin’ wife and a beautiful girl I know I’m...

I know the rain like the clouds know the sky. I speak to birds and tell them where to fly. I sing the songs that you hear on the breeze. I write the names of the rocks and the trees. Oh you fool, there are rules, I am coming for you. Darkness brings evil...

It's time to run, they'll string me up for all that I've done I'm going soon, gonna leave tonight, gotta I did it all for you, well I hope you know the lengths I've gone to What's a man to say? They'll be looking for me, should be on my way (Ooh ooh ooh o...

I had a vision tonight that the world was ending And the sky was falling and time was bending I watched the heavens collide right before my eyes What if the world dies with the sunrise? Baby it's all right we'll be up all night What if we're unmade when t...

Many nights have I heard her voice Whisper my name without making a noise Calling out from a pure, black void Tears of sorrow or tears of joy Drops in my cup as my mind is destroyed Staring into a pure, black void So what if I'm living out past the edg...

I will wait by the river In the light of the moon At the edge of the city I will wait for you Though I can't wait forever Someday I'll be dead and gone And I won't be forgiven For what I've done I will wait by the river I will wait by the river I w...

I'm a long way from the land that I left I've been running through life and cruising toward death If you think that I'm scared you've got me wrong If you don't know my name, you'll know it now I belong bodily to the earth I'm just wearing old bones from t...

She was wise beyond all others. On the island she was my lover. We went wild and it almost killed me, I was blind. But for thirteen days of sun and her I thought I'd never die. I couldn't get tired, although I should have been sleeping. For the first tim...

My one and only love I've been lonely long enough Will I find You when the night is over? Tell Me where did you go? I've been searching high and low I have only 'til the night is over In every window, I pass Your reflection in the glass Makes Me wonde...

If you got what you came for why should you stay? If you know where you're going why delay? If you won't be returning don't say goodbye. Turn you back on the ocean and follow the sun through the sky. I've already forgotten all of your names. And I cannot reme...
