Carpenter / Cohen - Monuments Lyrics

Watch me run this body down
Leave a lasting mark
Run this body down
I will run this body down
Use it up wear it out
Run this body down

Watch me leave no word unsaid
No breath unbreathed
No word unsaid
I will leave no word unsaid
Imagined thoughts lessons learned
No word unsaid

For these monuments will require spirit expired consumed
For thee monuments singular mind forgotten time the moon

Have it all you'd tempt to
The house the view
You'd tempt to
Have it all but with nothing left
For the world a theft
Nothing left

For these monuments will require spirit expired consumed
For thee monuments singular mind forgotten time the moon

Hold on
We are almost there
All our labors soon be done
Hold on
Breath deep the air
All our labors soon be done

Watch me wield these body moves
Fashion years to stone
From these body moves
I will wield these body moves
Sweat expelled giants felled
From these body moves
