"Thirst" lyrics - CITY AND COLOUR

When I think of fates worse than death
All I can think of is something you said
You said we were golden, bright like the sun
And now I am stranded knowing I'm not the one

An ocean of anger, flowing through me
Bloodstained and broken from what I failed to see
And just like a snake charmer you led me astray
Living in distress hoping help was on the way

In the midst of the storm searching for shelter
I came upon one single feather
A half-hearted wish for something better
Gracefully cursed, I thirst

Attached to the soil, I'm dyed in the wool
There's iron in my blood, yet so vulnerable
But after I'm gone, once I finally leave
You will be left alone to the wolves and the thieves

In the midst of the storm searching for shelter
I came upon one single feather
A half-hearted wish for something better
Gracefully cursed, I thirst

Gracefully cursed, I thirst
Gracefully cursed, I thirst

I thirst
