lyrics

The saints of crackpot lie
Unbroken bread and Friday nights
I've mapped out the road, I've searched my soul
But you, you confuse me

At first I thought I knew it all
The words were all carved in the wall
I felt invincible, it was just a principle
That I had inside my head
What if this is all inside my head?

We could be creatures of sweet emotion dragged together by fake devotion
To an unborn god wide as an ocean
Feel it now, drugged by potion
It falls from my lips

But not you
I won't let you slip
I won't let you fall
Just to touch your lips

Life is like a changing chord
Simple, complicated, just ignored
We're all a symphony
With different melodies and no one
No one's the same

If I die tomorrow, even today
What would be the last word you would say to me?
I'm on the death bed as I speak
Would you yell or let me die in peace?

But not you
I won't let you slip
I won't let you fall
Just to touch your lips
