A Blaze Of Feather - Portland Lyrics

Dawn light echoed freely
Left no hope no comfort no warmth
I stumbled slowly hoping
To find the grace for losin a war
A man went one to far last night
Put himself on trial
While brothers rallied on all sides
Braved the jackals way for a while

Held a flame
To the dreamin that had brought me near
But watch you fade
Brother I'd never forgive myself

Portland
If not now then when
Our sadness exhausted itself
Among legions of forgotten men
Shot down where the river runs cold
All tryin to find our way home
Where full circles won't end

I found a sheltered altar
With old wise heart lending an ear
Said we ain't dancin with the joker
Darlin you got nothin to fear
We shed our blood soon after
Hearts hewn to our sleeves
Talked ablaze throughout darkness into laughter

Still they came
The demons that had brought me near
No more charades
This old town is where the games should end

Portland
If not now then when
Our sadness exhausted itself
Among legions of forgotten men
Shot down where the river runs cold
Still tryin to find our way home
Where full circles won't end
