Rulers, Ruling All Things - Midlake

I have been cruel and kind without knowing

I fell in the silence overwhelmed by these days

For I have been shown dear rulers, ruling all things

Thinking the world was mine to lay hold on

I breathe in the promise of maiden and man

But each have their own illusions to hold onto

I only want to be left to my own ways

The rulers of one leaving all things undone

I stood in the awe of the whole creations

Gathered among them was the morning

Giving all its rays

Thinking the world was mine to be lost in

I ran with freedom and sank in between

For I have the path of wonder

There before me

I only want to be left to my own ways

The rulers of one leaving all things undone

I stood in the awe of the whole creation

Gathered among them was the morning

Giving all its rays
