Isn’t it ironic?
You must get cut
to know what love is
The deeper the pain can get
you fill it up
with all that’s comforting
That cup that holds the wine I drink
It burned in the oven ’til it melted clean
And I have felt the weight
but now I won’t break
Band fired up
as the hammer came down
Fell in love
as his breath began the final round
With each joy
a sorrow’s gonna come and try to knock my legs right out
That’s how it goes
and I’m gonna stand forever
Only have gold
when there’s a supernova
Here comes a mighty wind
It cuts the stems
right from their hinges
Then, they find a new place to land
and build again
That’s how the growth sets in
Oh, those who don’t know how to weep
with their whole heart
don’t know how to laugh either
There’s a lot of give and take
You brave the night
to see the day
Band fired up
as the hammer came down
Fell in love
as his breath began the final round
With each joy
a sorrow’s gonna come and try to knock my legs right out
That’s how it goes
and I’m gonna stand forever
Only have gold
when there’s a supernova
Everything goes round
Everything comes round
Band fired up
as the hammer came down
Fell in love
as his breath began the final round
With each joy
a sorrow’s gonna come and try to knock my legs right out
That’s how it goes
and I’m gonna stand forever
Only have gold
when there’s a supernova
Only have gold
when there’s a supernova
