When day dawned, the tempest passed away and the warm sun shone out. I was caught in a sunbeam that dried my eyes closed I'll show you what it means to come home alive 'Cause I've seen the curtain fall one too many times And it's my fault. Don't let the weight shatter your shoulders Just lay it down before you forget how. When God spoke, the field was dry as day And she felt her cold hands meet I was lost in the wood grain, 'till I heard her call my name We held a funeral for the moths we'd killed, then set to work again on the ones that lived. At least we knew. Have you been kneeling here long? Shedding your youth teaching yourself not to argue You're caught in a shroud you shouldn't have found Those monologues spoiled your innocence. Letras de canciones I swept up all your tiny fragments And spun you into thread, and dyed you gold But you never kept me warm enough to make it through a single night. So I cut you to parts, and sold you as scarves so you could go on after I was gone. When we meet again we'll be asleep underneath the flower bed. You'll tell me everything that you wished you'd done I'll wrap you in my arms and then I'll wake up But you will not. Can I finally say that I found some truth? That everything dies before I do 'Cause I've driven these stakes for all of my days Just to try and escape my uncertainty. There's nothing here to keep us from setting We're layers of paint eventually washed out. From Letras Mania
