If I was man enough to break your wrist
Send you home to rewrite all who made your list
Of ones who love and pray and help through time
Clock on the wall that won't relieve your right to life
We're all the facts and voted yes to keep
Burn hot the records those words hold no weight to me
My child I'm dying I have never told
The world of fucked up love between two souls like ours
I'm failing hard to stop a trying man
Until his purpose becomes done in God's whole plan
I claim my debt to be the arm holding your weight
What should I buy will not find the strength to wait
And pull my aching body off the ledge
One last touch before a shell becomes a bed
For herb to grow and life to feed itself
Don't be sad, this is my point
Don't dig a foxhole
I'll build a new home
That would lie on pavement
Solid foundation
For a family you'll grow
Two daughters you'll show
How a dark place found light
How a heart might grow bright
If I was man enough to break your wrist
I'd send you back to rethink all who made your list
Of ones to care and call and fix from love
Mirror on the wall that won't release your right to 
trust
We're all the packs of souls we tried to save
Burn hot the bodies these souls have no hold on me
My love I'm crying I have never sold
The world the truth about this place
Just please don't you
Don't dig a foxhole
I'll build a new home
That would lie on pavement
Solid foundation
For a new way of life
For a point to survive
Don't dig a foxhole
I'll build a new home
That would lie on pavement
Solid foundation
For a family you'll grow
Two daughters you'll show
How a dark place found light
How a heart might grow bright
While you're sleepless dream in memories of a time you 
felt alive
The warmth of life is precious to your eyes
Find a spot you plan to marry and bury it in deep dark 
earth
Return to it, come back here to me
Don't dig a foxhole
I'll build a new home
That would lie on pavement
Solid foundation
For a family you'll grow
Two daughters you'll show
How a dark place found light
How a heart might grow bright
Don't dig a foxhole
I'll build a new home
That would lie on pavement
Solid foundation
For a new way of life
For a point to survive
Don't dig a foxhole
I'll build a new home
Would lie on pavement
Solid foundation
For a family you'll grow
Two daughters you'll show
How a dark place found light
And a heart might grow bright
