lyrics

Taken away from their homes
As I was taken back by the things you’ve said
Living under a constant state of greed while the living cling
to those they’ve lost
How it seems at the end of the day
just never meets up with the way you lived your life

Kneeling and bowing your head to your knees,
giving myself to this tangled mess of irony
I swear that I saw it that day you came back,
that day when you came back from lucid dreams

But he told me how he swore at the clouds
and they turned their back from the scene you spoke of
I told you how I swore at the sun but I turned my back because I am him

You shouldve seen the marks on his back
That look on your face then just brought me back to here
Limit the bar that you set for your self but don’t look down,
don’t look back, then no one sees you crack

But he told me how he swore they wore crowns
and they burned away the clothes on his back
I told her how its always been about her
but I closed my eyes and told you how he spoke

“I told you, I told you, I told you to swear on it”
