Lyrics

I should have drowned in the flood
Now the life that I have is the one that I stole
You're like a holy priest in a blasphemous town
Where the devil takes care of his own
How long you gonna swing that rope?
It's a foolish man that still has hope
I'm everything that I've been told
Now I can't wait till we get home
How long you gonna grind that axe?
A burden laid on broken backs
A pilgrim lost without a map
So goddamn lost I can't get back
I'm so tired yet I slept through the war
You've got fires where there's supposed to be eyes
I gave up everything I said that I was
Now I worse off for what I've become
You're never gonna change your mind
A life that's better left behind
I'm never gonna get it right
And it's all my fault
How long you gonna twist that knife?
On borrowed time, a stolen life
And drift apart like my first wife
The final spark that left your eyes
I should have drowned in the flood
Now the life that I have is the one that I stole
You're like a summer storm rolling in from the west
And with it you brought the rain
I was born a jealous man
I lead a sheltered life but there's blood on my hands
Show me there is something more
I'll drink my own blood
I have seen too much
Keep your sorrow safe and close to your heart
Show me the rebirth
I'll dig my own grave
Extend your broken hands
Show me your shallow heart
Tell there's something more
I'll drink my own blood
