Common Coin

from Blood & Bone by Can You Canoe

/

lyrics

Give me patience, hope, and love
To balance out my strife
Fill me up like the holy ghost,
And I've just accepted Jesus Christ

Oh, my, my
Hard as I try
It's something that ain't easy to find
Like the wildebeest
Who becomes the feast
When the lion sinks its teeth in his hide

It's not written in the towers,
But rather in the tears
In the common coin of blood and bone
You are not alone
Remember child,
You are not alone
That ain't no angel on your shoulder
But an anvil on your chest
Like an anchor that's
Wrapped around you ankles
Sinking you into the depths
Remember child,
Hold onto your breath

You can't cage the animal
It will keep on runnin' wild
But a buddhist and a cannibal
They both started as an innocent child
