you and me of the 10,000 wars (live) - indigo girls lyrics

[verse 1]
you and me of the ten thousand wars
dividing life into factions of pleasures and chores
a bed to be made and a bed to lie in
a hand in the darker side and our sights set on zion

[verse 2]
the heart of a skeptic and the mind of a child
put my life in a box and let my imagination run wild
pour the cement for my feet
the heart and the mind on a parallel course
never the two shall meet
[chorus]
and oh, the dissatisfied with the satisfied
everybody loves a melodrama and the scandal of a lie
still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter
i see your eyes in my eyes through your eyes
still water

[verse 3]
try making one and one make one
twist the shapes until everything comes undone
watch the wizard behind the curtain
the larger than life and the power of seeming certain

[verse 4]
the evil ego and the vice of pride
is there ever anything else
that makes us take our different sides?
i wanted everything to feed me
about as full as i got was of myself
and the upper echelons of mediocrity

[chorus]
and oh, the dissatisfied with the satisfied
everybody loves a melodrama and the scandal of a lie
still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter
i see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes
still water
still water
[verse 5]
after the battles and we’re still around
everything once up in the air has settled down
sweep the ashes, let the silence find us
a moment of peace is worth every war behind us

[outro]
you and me of the ten thousand wars

thanks y’all. thank you.
