lyrics

Face the wall and think about what I have done
I pull my hood over my head
To hide my healing from the dead
If this is wrong, don't want to be right
But what do you know?
To say you never make mistakes
Well that's the biggest mistake you'll make
Wouldn't you say?

Our will wears down
Like erasers on paper
We try to rub away frown after frown
Just to find more underneath
Truth sinks ships
White lies cover guilty lovers
Who live in spite of you

You cut your colt from muscle and steam
But why so high?
'Cause when your bronco breaks its knees
You'll have to ride down here with me
You say we can make a brand new start
But what do you know?
How much forgiving can you do
If no one ever had to forgive you?

High up above the place where I sit on the ground
So hard to see your face when you always look down
Pack lightly just in case
You make your way down from your crown

How many urges must we fight?
How many wrongs before it's right?
And God said, "Now let there be light,"
Before he covered up his eyes
Wouldn't you say?

Our will wears down
Like erasers on paper
We try to rub away frown after frown
Just to find more underneath
Truth sinks ships
White lies cover guilty lovers
Who live in spite of you
