When I Was Idle lyrics

Idle was the inside, beaten was my path That weather turned so quick I could feel the outcome bearing on my tracks I wasn’t ready for it I wasn’t ready for it So I had to pace myself Stagger what was left with vigilance And think of somewhere else To satiate my mind To focus on a point I thought I’d left behind These, the hours I was left The moments at my side They said would never last But still I had to try, try You know I had to try We don’t want your enemies Save that trouble for yourself It’s us and no one else in our own story
