jesse welles - pilgrim (december 7, 2024 lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
dreams like a kaleidoscope life’s just some sh+tty list i wrote
of everything i’ve ever broke, a circus of debris
of every jagged word i’ve spoke, every cigarette i’ve smoked
if ever you were told to, don’t, don’t ever change a thing

[chorus]
floating down the stream of time
teach this pilgrim how to shine
floating down the stream, what’s it gonna be?
you can’t take what isn’t mine

[post+chorus]
oh

[verse 2]
the flood that comes in all my dreams, tsunami of memories
take me where they’ll bury me, acquaint me with the stones
for every brick and every beam, a slave will work and sweat and bleed
and an architect collects his fee, all floods do run to home

[chorus]
floating down the stream of time
you can’t take what isn’t mine
floating down the stream, what’s it gonna be?
teach this pilgrim how to die
[post+chorus]
oh

[verse 3]
before the sun completes its arc and leaves us wintering in dark
is there language here, or just strange marks? some alphabet of souls
some memories whisper low remarks, others, never ceasing, bark like dogs
in some sunless park, forever digging holes

[chorus]
floating down the streams of time
take this pilgrim, make him shine
floating down the stream, what’s it gonna be?
teach this pilgrim how to die

[post+chorus]
oh

[verse 4]
the time will come when i awake and the cold wind of the dawn will say
“i don’t care if you go or stay, just don’t forget your soul”
vanity, like leaden plates, protect me from what radiates
reality’s dishonest weight, pass through me and go on

[chorus]
floating down the streams of time
you can’t take what isn’t mine
floating down the stream, what’s it gonna be?
teach this pilgrim how to die
[post+chorus]
oh
