He told me sweet lies of sweet love
|
Heavy with the burden of the truth
|
And he spoke of his dreams
|
Broken by the burden
|
Broken by the burden of his youth
|
Fourteen years he said
|
I couldn't look into the sun
|
She saw him laying at the end of my gun
|
Hungrey for life
|
And thirsty for the distant river
|
I remember his hands
|
And the way the mountains looked
|
The light shot diamonds from his eyes
|
Hungry for life
|
And thirsty for the distant river
|
Like the scar of age
|
Written all over my face
|
The war is still raging inside of me
|
I still feel the chill
|
As i reveal my shame to you
|
I wear it like a tattoo
|
I wear it like a tattoo
|
I wear it like a tattoo
|
