Lyrics

What is courage? Is it brave?
What are lions? I've only seen them in parades
How is love supposed to read in a footnote of history?
What's a tap on your shoulder that you're afraid to look over?
A soldier's down in a firefight, no one can look me in the eye
This is what it means to be alone
Tear out my heart
Feed it to lions
For this one wish I beg you this tonight
Show me no mercy
Spare me my pride
I'm going for a drive
If you find out he's coming home
When I come 'round the corner
I'll know that it's alright
Just leave me two lights
Now he was young, just 23
Didn't have to go, but he was the man he wanted to be
Like every son, he was an only one
And one day he came to me
Said freedom's nothing to look over
'Til each man can stand up on his shoulder
I'll write your mountains of letters
Each one a little bit better
And no, I'll never be alone
Tear out my heart
Feed it to lions
For this one wish I beg you this tonight
Show me no mercy
Spare me my pride
I'm going for a drive
If you find out he's coming home
When I come 'round the corner
I'll know that it's alright
Leave me two lights
Silent angel, light the road up ahead
As the sentries guard the well
On the avenue of borrowed time
I'm almost home, the sun's to rise
I got no, I been driving all the nights
There's our corner up ahead
I'm alive and I am dead
I drive right through the stop sign
To my head as I lift my eyes
My eyes burn
Tear out my heart
Feed it to lions
For this one wish I beg you this tonight
Show me no mercy
Spare me my pride
I'm going for a drive
