Honour Lyrics

I left my cave, I left my throne

I left my claim so coarsely won

The river it winds and the wind how it howls

And as I learnt to speak I ditched my growl

Cos there's this word as old as stone

That I can't seem to place my finger on

Is it honour?

What is honour worth?

In a world where meaning no longer can be found

Is it love?

What does love mean?

If I cannot be this honourable man

The future is weak in the hands of the past

The sunset it burns if you don't shield your eyes

Cos there's this word I swear I used to know

It was on the tip of my tongue and now it's stuck in my throat

Is it honour?

What is honour worth?

In a world where meaning no longer can be found

Is it love

What does love mean?

If I cannot be this honourable man

I left my house, I left my home

I left in search of a truth I'd known

Though I return with no great insight

I can see in colour not in black and white

Because honour

It can be a moral worth

In a world where meaning still has to be found

And love

Well I know what love means

It's written in the corners of your mouth
