"Two Coins" lyrics - CITY AND COLOUR

CITY AND COLOUR
"Two Coins"
(Dallas Green)

North west is where I'm heading
Underneath the golden sky
I'm searching for wisdom
That every man seeks to find

I've got wicked thoughts brewing
Many evil deeds I've done
I'm looking for a reason
For a reason not to run

'Cause I've always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance
I've always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance

I've got no destination
No place to call my own
I'll explore the constellations
Till I find the 'cause I'm mean to hold

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

'Cause I've always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance
I've always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance

I've been so unforgiving
Stranded in old traditions

'Cause I've always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance
I've always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance

I've always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance
I've always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance
