I Gave You All

Rip the earth in two with your mind

And seal the urge which ensues when brass wires

I never meant you any harm

Your tears feel warm as they fall on my forearm

But close my eyes for a while

And force from the world a patient smile

How can you say that your truth is better than ours?

Shoulder to shoulder, now brother, we carry no arms

And the blind man sleeps in the doorway, his home

If only I had and enemy bigger than my apathy, I could have won

But I gave you all

I gave you all

I gave you all

Close my eyes for a while

And force from the world a patient smile

But I gave you all

I gave you all

I gave you all

And you rip it from my hands

And you swear it's all gone

And you rip out all I had

Just to say that you've won

And you rip it from my hands

And you swear it's all gone

And you rip out all I had

Just to say that you've won

You've won

Well, now you've won

But I gave you all

I gave you all

I gave you all
