Vena Cava - Nerina Pallot

It’s love, not manners, maketh man

And truth wins hearts, not sleight of hand

But what good will it do?

When the world will sing a different song

And no one knows the words

So you sing along in silence

And silently you hurt

Vena cava, vena cava, in the end we’re all the same

Only feeling, only feeling flowing through our veins

And it’s beautiful, it’s beautiful

Everything that’s wrong will all be right again

If you can’t speak of what you’ve seen

Was it too much for you to feel?

Do the senses not make sense

When these empires are magnificent?

But all things fall apart

And I once more get out a miracle

A breath to stop the heart

Vena cava, vena cava, in the end we’re all the same

Only feeling, only feeling flowing through our veins

And it’s beautiful, it’s beautiful

Everything that’s wrong will all be right again

Vena cava, vena cava

Spill the blood and mourn it after

Time will heal and so will laughter

But life is strange

Vena cava, vena cava, in the end we’re just the same

Only feeling, only feeling flowing through our veins

And it’s beautiful, life is beautiful, it’s beautiful

It’s beautiful, it’s so beautiful

Everything that’s wrong will all be right again.
