Adventures In Solitude Lyrics - Challengers - New Pornographers

Balancing on one wounded wing 

Circling the edge of the never ending 

The best of the vanished marvels 

Have gathered inside your door 

More than begin but less than forget 

But spirits born from the not happened yet 

Gathering there to pay off a debt 

Brought back from the wars 

We thought, we lost you 

We thought, we lost you 

We thought, we lost you 

Welcome back 

Sleeping for years, pick through what is left 

Through the pieces that fell and rose from the depth 

From the rainwater well deep as a secret nobody knows 

Less than forget but more than begun 

These adventures in solitude never done 

To the names of our wounds 

We send the same blood back from the wars 

We thought, we lost you 

We thought, we lost you 

We thought, we lost you 

It will all come back 

I know you want to run far away 

From one more and that it's comin' at a bad time 

Some cold place heartless ways for all we know 

I know you need to breathe through 

Come back, come too but it's comin' at a bad time 

Tangled day for all we know 

I know you want to run far away from one more 

And that's comin' at a bad time 

Some cold race heartless ways for all we know 

I know you want to breathe through 

Come back, come too but it's comin' at a bad time 

Old scarred face survivor's guilt, for all we know
