You bet we fight, until pressed against six feet of distance and earth
|
Yeah we make mistakes that our fathers have made and my troubles come up from the earth
|
My teeth grit, fierce, and I beg you to understand, Grace is my name
|
Tongues run amok and fangs will breed on fangs
|
So keep your secrets in the mattress and pray that they don't escape
|
It's impossible act of building our bridges much faster than they burn
|
Stay, because I can't afford the distance shadowing my heart
|
And what good is a sinner if we haven't got grace
|
|
Save the son
|
My troubles boulevard across the land
|
Save the son
|
They're keeping secrets in the mattress
|
Save the son
|
Discard
|
Save the son
|
I'm trying to keep them right here
|
Medic
|
Medic
|
Medic
|
I've given up all my weapons and headed home
|
|
I can see the words inside your silence, but I can't speak about your pain for you
|
How long can you burn for anyways
|
Turning over and back again with tongues ablaze like lions without teeth, hungry
|
Staring at the forests of flames and our eyes just talking with the trees
|
If we could drift long enough we'll be home
|
Sails blown by the fire within pushing me to you
|
And you can live inside of me, sewn together
|
Breaking, inhaling, growing and breaking again and again
|
And you are a part of me
|
You are my home and I'm your home but I'm no place you want to be
|
So I'm out here again, sparks hid behind my teeth
|
I won't say a word for fear of failure spreading
|
It takes some of us longer to get to our dead-ends now
|
Oh blood-stained with loose living
|
Ran through charcoal hearts to make it red
|
And we can be on fire again, you and I, you want this
|
Well say what you want, say what you mean
|
Or we can talk, lung to closed ear
|
Head inside a hand turning over again, together
|
Cut up with cheap heat running through our veins
|
And we can lay brick by broken brick, our ashes pushed in between
|
And build this road back home to where we wanna be
|
We are not on our own, we are the same
|
|
Let fangs give birth to fangs but I can't walk away
|
But I can't walk away
|
Let them breed
|
