Daniel
[Verse]
So it wasn’t your finest hour
Head in a cradle, dead drunk on the floor
We’ve all been there before, we’ve all been there before

[Verse]
October is over without you noticing
Without you leaving your ocean stained bed
With that ocean stained pillow neath your ocean stained head

[Chorus]
From the book of lamentation to the days of awe
I saw Daniel in the den of lions
A shadow cast over his pale face
I caught a glimpse at daybreak, and he was gone

[Verse]
Always you were the leaving kind
Hell-bent on dying, you walked out with the tide
So when the river called you in, already you’d penned your goodbyes
[Chorus]
From the book of lamentation
To the days of awe
I looked into that lion’s eye
And you were all I saw

[Verse]
Now when the sun goes down on an east coast shore
I think of the love you held for the tributaries of the north
What of ourselves do we leave behind
As we ebb with the ebbing times

[Verse]
Now you’re sunlight
You’re that incandescent bloom
You’re a high-oxygen fire burning blue
Now your Daniel, you’re our lion
You’re the spark and the flame and now you’re flying
