Broken by the back of it It was hard enough without the loss Hanging on a thread of it It was hard enough without the cost Dancing to your lover's beat Beaten on heavy feet Working on a dream you made Well, you made enough to ride the wave Elijah, you're too young to be lost Elijah, don't fade out on the cross Elijah, I don't know What it is you need to do Wish you could have talked to me Found another way to be Living hard don't sound so good It's hard to get out of the woods Elijah, you're too young to be lost Elijah, don't fade out on the cross Elijah, I don't know What it is you need to do The radio was playing all day And I heard you singing Fingers strom the sound through delay And it echoes to me Wishbones hidden in the residue Someday they'll find you Just a little piece of good for two It won't forget you Elijah, you're too young to be lost Elijah, don't fade out on the cross Elijah, I don't know What it is you need to do
