Verse
Intro riff
‘Lo and behold your mother is drinking again
This might be the coldest winter since records began
You were alone and steady with wintry calm
Leading the children softly across the fold

Intro riff
Each morning you march your sisters like soldiers to school
‘Cause lo and behold your father has drunk quite a few
You were alone and steady with wintry calm
Somewhere inside the fire of your youth went dark

But you swear blind there is no weight in the water pail
You say ‘my love, you take the cards that you’re dealt’
Cause there’s no guiding light arcing a line to Bethlehem
If it’s dark outside, you light the fire yourself

Darling when the ice caps melt
When the devils in the bible belt
Don’t you cower in your bed
I’ll be at the five-four-five
You can meet me at the railway line
Don’t look so scared

’Cause we’ve been through worse than this before we could talk

And the trick of it is, don’t be afraid anymore
Oh, the trick of it is, don’t be afraid anymore

You ar[C/F]e the string in my bow.

Biblic[C/F]al Mary to Joe.

The North isn’t true ‘til it’s leading me to you.

You ar[C/F]e the way that I know.

Under the weight of belief
You shiver and shake like a leaf.
But death is a force, not a man on a horse:
I’ll keep you safe while you sleep.

We fight those demons day in and day out,

Day in and day out, day in and day out

And fight those demons day in and day out
Day in and day out, day in and day out
And fight those demons day in and day out
Day in and day out, day in and day out
Day in and day out, day in and day out
