That’s Exactly How This Grace Thing Works

Mumford & Sons – Roll Away Your Stone

Roll away your stone, I’ll roll away mine

Together we can see what we will find

Don’t leave me alone at this time,

For I am afraid of what I will discover inside

You told me that I would find a hole,

Within the fragile substance of my soul

And I have filled this void with things unreal,

And all the while my character it steals

Darkness is a harsh term don’t you think?

And yet it dominates the things I seek

It seems that all my bridges have been burned,

But, you say that’s exactly how this grace thing works

It’s not the long walk home

that will change this heart,

But the welcome I receive with the restart

Darkness is a harsh term don’t you think?

And yet it dominates the things I seek

Darkness is a harsh term don’t you think?

And yet it dominates the things I seek

Darkness is a harsh term don’t you think?

And yet it dominates the things I seek

Stars hide your fires,

And these here are my desires

And I will give them up to you this time around

And so, I’ll be found

with my steak stuck in this ground

Marking its territory of this newly impassioned soul

hide your fires,

these are my desires

And I will give them up to you this time around

And so, I’ll be found

with my steak stuck in this ground

Marking its territory of this newly impassioned soul

But you, you’ve gone too far this time

You have neither reason nor rhyme

With which to take this soul that is so rightfully mine
