lyrics

So, not only do we take, but we destroy
She’s busy with the ache you so enjoy
Examining the hands and bending tidal stones
It’s all about the brand, and so we guild our bones
It’s not enough to pay, we must endure
The money will turn grey, then bleached and pure
They’ll find another way, of pushing you to steal
They’ll build a bigger bomb, and throw away the wheel

But oh, they could never break you down
Go slow, we won’t even make a sound
Oh, slip out of the room, you’ll see
No, there’s no coming back for me

Surrender is a gift, but how we run
Time is not a man, it is a gun
We dance where there are walls, and sing about escape
We dream to fly not fall, but stumble when we wake

But oh, they could never break you down
Go slow, we won’t even make a sound
Oh, slip out of the room, you’ll see
No, there’s no coming back for me

Why do we all believe
That what was lost can be recovered for a fee?
And how can I build a home
When every brick will soon be swallowed by the sea?
I scratch my name into the sand and let the letters lie
For any honesty has promptly been set free
I look ahead and see the sunset rise
And watch my name get swallowed by the sea
It gives me pause and pushes me to leave
It gives me pause and pushes me to leave
It gives me pause and pushes me
To leave

But oh, they could never break you down
Go slow, we won’t even make a sound
Oh, slip out of the room, you’ll see
No, there’s no coming back for me

If I knew it would end this way, I would hold you close
but then I would deceive you
I could give you all that I own
But it would all be dust
And then what would I leave you?
