New Blood

[Verse 1: Sara Watkins, Chris Thile]
Friend when I hear you speak
It's like listening to the mirror
We steel ourselves against the advancing seas
Friend when I hear you speak
And dissenting neighbors
It's like listening to the mirror

We are one
But when
Has one
Ever been
Enough
Old friends?

[Verse 2: Sara Watkins, Chris Thile, (Sean Watkins), All]
New blood come and bring my blood to boil, let's
Melt the wall down and form a pearl, been
Stuck on the sound of my own voice, you're
My grain of sand and buddy I'm your oyster

Have you read the Times today?
Wе are this poor world's virus
Its fever's fit to spikе and buddy when it breaks
Who cares what the papers say
When we have the word of Jesus
Which of those old verses
Will you dust off to prove a just God
To help us lose our taste for their worldly ways
(Chafe, fellow strangers, chafe)
Would still want to save us?
That His love might save us
(Comfort has failed to save us)

We are one
We are lost
We've prayed and we've prayed but we're no less afraid
We've thought and we've thought but we're no better off
Cause one's
Never been
Enough

Old friends
Deep ruts
Dead ends
Good luck
Amen

[Verse 3: Sara Watkins, All]
New blood come and bring my blood to boil let's
Melt the wall down and form a pearl been
Stuck on the sound of my own voice you're
My grain of sand and buddy I am your new
Blood come and bring my blood to boil
Let's melt the wall down and form a pearl
Been stuck on the sound of my own voice you're
My grain of sand and buddy I'm your oyster
