Well, I swear that you came in the form of rain
|
That had frozen somewhere along it's way through the evening sky
|
So the trees got tired and laid on the ground
|
I swear you marched in like big gusts of wind
|
Oh, cutting through our clothes
|
Such an easy attempt to convince us
|
There is no reason we should be outside
|
When you speak, it's like fire
|
The sparks leap from your mouth
|
And all your talk of such burdens
|
No, it won't bring me and all my friends down
|
Well, I swear that you spilled into my room last night
|
Oh, covering me in sheets so tight that I didn't move
|
I just laid around until the early afternoon
|
So now we're at the bars hypnotized
|
And trying hard to keep the conversation going
|
Trying hard to ignore the silence growing like it always does
|
Yeah, I know, so we better get running
|
And all your thoughts, they're so tired
|
Your bullets won't take aim
|
And oh your face, it's so stern now
|
No we won't be scared
|
No we won't back down
|
We will sing pretty songs about love
|
And we will fight if that's what it takes
|
And we won't back down
|
No we won't shut our eyes and go to sleep
|
We will write all over your walls
|
And we will dance to no music at all
|
We will do what it takes to get through to you
|
