Standing Still Songtext
von Reuben and the Dark

Well away from the city they carried my life
I'd grown tired of the way that the day treats the night
And no matter how far I ran
No matter how far I ran

Follow the railroad the only thing dry
The path does narrow as Angela's eyes
No matter how far I ran
No matter how far I ran

Oh may my soul be found
Brother,
Brother,
Here's where I belong


I was born by the water the wealth of the sea
And infants awaken with ominous dreams
And I traveled the world till the waltzin the streets
No matter how far I ran

Oh may my soul be found

On the tail of a hurricane, the trick of the trade
I stay angry at angels that stand in the way
Who wore a halo of smoke from a passing train
Now the seat at my table's been taken away

I'm the same man now that I was when I changed
See, the birth of a star is a death of it's fate.
Rise up like the water and fall like the rain a lung
full of air from an oxygen tank

Brother,
Brother,
Make my soul be found.
Now Mother,
Father,
Oh here's where I belong


Lay me down, and let my love live forever in this ground.
