lyrics

A wiser fool would never drop vizard,
But no one’s ever had to push this hard,
Other people feel the torrent coming,
The rolling eyes and all those fingers drumming,
It feels like one big cautionary tale
But maybe there’s still time to pay the bail,
And free us from the sentence of our sin,
And free us from the prison of our skin

House in rubble,
Letter in my hand,
Doorbell broken,
Not meant to understand
Windows shattered,
Make it like we planned,
No one answers,
Not meant to understand.

I’ve finally come to terms with my mistakes,
A heart that’s bigger every time it breaks,
And even though there’s pieces on the ground,
You make them bigger every time they’re found
Mistakes and I have reached a new detente,
The thing I need can meet the thing I want,
There’s ribbons and there’s trophies on the shelf,
So what am I protecting in myself?

But still there is a glimmer of reprieve,
The cost is worth the chance to just believe,
If only we’d admit we took the bait,
And let our better angels bear the weight...
