Lyrics The Low Anthem

The Low Anthem

Champion Angel

Throw up your voice but not you mind

While them agents of change go monopolize

Their colors and their faces are just shades of the same

All lost in the game

And we don't need no personal saviors here

Just a warm hearth and water. It's purely biological

No posturing mannequin man or woman

Shall receive my hand

Among all you angels is a champion angel

Among all you devils there's a free soul

Up from the disenfranchised the engine cries

Up from the circle there's a hole

The child insubordinate disrupts the pecking order

So go marry young while you can

'Cause the weave of the rug and the cut of the throne

Testify before the ocean's open hand

I promise you this promise we are not alone

But why is it I alone that promise this

Deny the forces that would hurry men

If you still can

[CHORUS]

We come now to a fracture in the road

Here time has taken her toll

The endless freezing and the thawing of the heart

Would eventually divide us apart

What's that you found in the pocket of your coat

Looks like a small sentiment that she wrote

Don't be my personal savior I would not be saved

I chose to walk alone

[CHORUS]
