And in the first year of my former life
|
I was 17 and a wildfire burning
|
If I stretched out my hands I was convinced I could conjure angels
|
And yeah I was pretty sure she was bulletproof
|
At least I never saw anybody ever get to you
|
You used to wonder all the time if you made it,
|
on to the point of a ritual,
|
to the point of a ritual
|
|
And I used to die every night
|
All in your honor,
|
in your honor, oh, in your honor
|
While you were gone,
|
While you were gone
|
|
And in the last hours before the sunrise
|
I’m not sure if I passed out or closed my eyes
|
I woke into a dream where I know I knew,
|
somebody had just got their claws in you
|
And your breath heaves in silent anythings,
|
like a subconscious ritual
|
|
And I used to die every night
|
All in your honor,
|
in your honor, oh, in your honor
|
While you were gone,
|
While you were gone
|
|
And if you’re gonna break my heart, it might as well be tonight
|
And if you’re gonna break my heart, it might as well be tonight
|
|
I used to die every sweet, sweet night
|
All in your honor
|
And I used to die every night
|
All in your honor,
|
in your honor, oh, in your honor
|
While you were gone,
|
While you were gone
|
All in the throws of rebellion
|
In the throws of rebellion
|
In the throws of rebellion
|
