  1. [Lyric] Roscoe Acoustic Version (Midlake)

    Stonecutters made them from stones Chosen specially for you and I Who will live inside The mountaineers gathered timber Piled high In which to take along Traveling many miles, knowing they'd get here When they got here, all exhausted On the roof leaks they got started And now when the rain comes We can be thankful Ooh aah ooh When the...Learn More

  2. [Lyric] Of Desire (Midlake)

    [Verse 1] We're working it out But time can really, really play some tricks on us now I can't always tell if what is good for the fowl Maybe not so good for everyone in the house Make believe was never so easy [Chorus] I never noticed why Means to an end of desire [Verse 2] No one wants to get out of line Reason should always see eye to eye Then...Learn More

  3. [Lyric] Meanwhile... (Midlake)

    Listen to me closely here my dear For I do fear that the end is near Oh it's clear All the little things that brought us here Were they insincere Filled with crocodile tears Oh dear We'll step aside Out of mind Out of sight Devoid of all defined So that meanwhile Then he came to me in a dream Did it so vividly Offering just one plea, simply Then...Learn More

  4. [Lyric] It Covers the Hillsides Acoustic Version (Midlake)

    It covers the roadways It covers the hillsides It covers the houses It covers the frozen pines And we had the snowfall To run all the rations dry And when we got hungry We'd taken what wasn't ours And now we will set out The seats are cold on this boat As we head towards the ocean Making our way out Trying to survive As we head out towards the...Learn More

  5. [Lyric] Feast of Carrion (Midlake)

    Whom from the least of these Knew how to move along Buried in disbelief and drowning Caught in between the deeds Of all whoever wanted Sought out to seize the Spring Of season's coming Oh come release me to carry on Oh come release me now Oh come release me to carry on Oh come release me now Made out the greed Bereaved ones still holding on Due...Learn More

  6. [Lyric] Gone (Midlake)

    Was it good within walls underneath the lies? The more the barrier Began to bury the truth of it all In the roots of it all But I still wonder why we even try For years now what would bind us is gone It's gone Make a call, in lays a fight or flight day The scene replays this stage even more Even more than before So I still wonder why we even...Learn More

  7. [Lyric] Commune (Midlake)

    One, two One, two I've been away now far too long Lost and alone with no communion With not one Gone are the days of want and need Brought all along by the Prince of Peace With us be Break bread with them all Make time to recall The ones who came before...Learn More

  8. [Lyric] Exile (Midlake)

    [Verse 1] In the belly of the beast Why don't we walk as thick as thieves? Lies are but any other denial For the many of them wide eyed [Refrain] Oh, but I'm still blind [Verse 2] In a valley o'r the body Made up of winter's only life Remains but a branch amongst the empty maze Could it be the will from Ancient of Days? [Refrain] Oh, but I'm...Learn More

  9. [Lyric] Dawning (Midlake)

    Enter A cautionary tale Not for the faint of heart For fear it may impale Sent to mental breakdown A mournful man in doubt Tried to be medicinal But now can't figure out The dawning of age will be With or without influence at all Faithfully come Fade in A glass menagerie Built upon what's left of All the year's in misery Longing for...Learn More

  10. [Lyric] Glistening (Midlake)

    [Verse 1] You fell in to the ocean You fell in to the sea Among all of the commotion Of cries and endless pleas There's something in the way we move around Crawling on the ground The countenance has eased up now Slowly [Chorus] Now I know why This won't go right Bow out while My glistening's bright [Verse 2] Recall upon that moment You called...Learn More

  12. [Lyric] Noble (Midlake)

    I stayed up for hours and hours Wondering all the while Wondering how we will get by Who would want to hear about The wanderings of my mind This wasn't supposed to be my life You came in Like a cherubim Holy in every way life’s given Oh please stay by my side Your yoke is easy And burden light You can always laugh While I struggle to crack a...Learn More
