Delta Spirit - St. Francis lyrics

[Verse:] They're all throwing stones at the back of my home Kicking the dirt in the air Well I left to think while they're thinking I'm stoned Well I had no cause to be there And out of this town while I had something left Bury the fear in my head Well it's all just the same cause the city's just as bare It's full of people like me [Chorus:] We've all run away Everyone wants but nobody needs Silver and gold Well everyone wants, but nobody needs [Interlude similar to verse] Well I ran to the woods and I preached to the birds sponsored links St. Francis talking to me Well they said I'd find love in a pain I'd endure If I would just listen to him With my ear to the ground and my heart full of lead Well I quietly listened to him teach But with tears in his eyes, he just looked straight through me I awkwardly waited for speech We've all run away Everyone wants but nobody needs Silver and gold Everyone wants, but nobody needs [Interlude w/ changed piano part] Once I was sure that this love was the truth Well I quickly spit in his face I returned to my home, friends and I, we threw stones Bragging that we knew the way [hummed chorus 1x until the end]
