[Verse 1]
Do the years add up to the suck and the blow
Of a breath and a beating heart
There must be more
You can wash your face with a sunset song
But the lines will still remain
They'll never be gone
Will you bully your land with a furrowed brow
But king harvest leaves
With a thinning crown
You may bow your head as the hair recedes
But it's filled with years
That no one can steal
[Chorus]
When the work stops working
What was light becomes a weight
When the work stops working
Shall we pack it all in
When the work stops working
And the weight becomes an ache
When the work stops working
Shall we pack it all in
Or start again
Do the years add up to the suck and the blow
Of a breath and a beating heart
There must be more
You can wash your face with a sunset song
But the lines will still remain
They'll never be gone
Will you bully your land with a furrowed brow
But king harvest leaves
With a thinning crown
You may bow your head as the hair recedes
But it's filled with years
That no one can steal
[Chorus]
When the work stops working
What was light becomes a weight
When the work stops working
Shall we pack it all in
When the work stops working
And the weight becomes an ache
When the work stops working
Shall we pack it all in
Or start again
