The Chariot - David De La Hoz lyrics

You bet we fight, until pressed against six feet of distance and earth Yeah we make mistakes that our fathers have made and my troubles come up from the earth My teeth grit, fierce, and I beg you to understand, Grace is my name Tongues run amok and fangs will breed on fangs So keep your secrets in the mattress and pray that they don't escape It's impossible act of building our bridges much faster than they burn Stay, because I can't afford the distance shadowing my heart And what good is a sinner if we haven't got grace Save the son My troubles boulevard across the land Save the son They're keeping secrets in the mattress Save the son Discard Save the son I'm trying to keep them right here Medic Medic Medic I've given up all my weapons and headed home I can see the words inside your silence, but I can't speak about your pain for you How long can you burn for anyways Turning over and back again with tongues ablaze like lions without teeth, hungry Staring at the forests of flames and our eyes just talking with the trees If we could drift long enough we'll be home Sails blown by the fire within pushing me to you And you can live inside of me, sewn together Breaking, inhaling, growing and breaking again and again And you are a part of me You are my home and I'm your home but I'm no place you want to be So I'm out here again, sparks hid behind my teeth I won't say a word for fear of failure spreading It takes some of us longer to get to our dead-ends now Oh blood-stained with loose living Ran through charcoal hearts to make it red And we can be on fire again, you and I, you want this Well say what you want, say what you mean Or we can talk, lung to closed ear Head inside a hand turning over again, together Cut up with cheap heat running through our veins And we can lay brick by broken brick, our ashes pushed in between And build this road back home to where we wanna be We are not on our own, we are the same Let fangs give birth to fangs but I can't walk away But I can't walk away Let them breed
