Always Got Away

What is success?
 A house on a mountaintop?
 Things that cost a lot of money, I got
 Comfort for the beast inside
 Childhood dreams
 Some a-come here through the air
 Laid themselves untouched and bare
 Like a gift in the night
 And old forgiveness
 I find I lend you long ago
 A broken part of me would not let go
 But it always got away, yeah
 It always got away, hey, yeah
 So hold my hand
 And walk beside me now
 I'll help you clear
 The demons of thunder
 And the wreckage of your past
 An unknown soldier
 From a regiment of angels sees
 Illuminated fields of everything
 And this too shall pass
 And one love
 I really thought I had it all
 But reality came fallin' down
 'Cause it always got away, hey, yeah
 Yes, always got away, hey, yeah
 And I believe it's true
 When mountains crumble to, the sea
 It will always be you and me
 Now take these hands
 Raise 'em up into the dirty sky
 Let go the reins and let your horses fly
 To the green grass of home
 The green grass, success
 The green, green grass, forgiveness
 The green grass of one love
 The green grass of knowing
 Knowing who I am
 I thought I held it right here in my hand
 What I didn't really understand
 Is that these tears
 Of shame and hurt and fear
 Like everything else
 They would disappear
 But it always got away, hey
 Yes, it always got away, hey,
 Always got away, hey,
 It always got away
