lyrics

Breath in it’s harmless, break down this godless
Fear of the old ways I know so well
Sick of my sins, sick of all the cities and these sidewalks
Paving over hell

There’s a burden in my heart, the devils in the details
It holds me down but rings out like a bell
I know its hardest on me, as I ride upon the swells
Wake me if I’m sleeping in a spell

The sound that she would make
Crashes down on to my face
The hours, these days, these lights
Pull me down at the speed of night

*I’ll bind it to my heart so hollow
I wont forget your face tomorrow
Bend me back and forth like a wire
Watch as I dance and shake like a liar

Oh this is my bodies way to cope
Oh this is my last request then I’ll go

Stones, build walls
Bury me in my home
Low and behold
There is love
This I know
