Stonecatcher Songtext
von Marcus Mumford

Who am I
Rambling at my reflection in the rear view light
Following a stranger, praying for a fight
Or the strength to get back on my knees again

This light
Glowing neon in the corner of my mind
Burns and burns but leaves no warmth behind
I kinda wish you′d just done it in the dark

Oh my God
We're here again
It all slows down
To lines in the sand

Will I give out
Only that which I myself was given once
Where is all the mercy that was promised us
Perhaps we ask too much


Coulda just as well been me
Brought before them head down in that midday heat
Only defined by my most heinous deed
Well who would trace a finger through the dust

Oh my God
We′re here again
It all slows down
To lines in the sand

All we can hope
Is that we suffer well
When the cycle ends
When there's tales to tell
When it reaches me
Let me be a stonecatcher please

Oh my God
We're here again
It all slows down
To lines in the sand
