YOU'LL GET OVER

Sometimes when the night gets darkest
I see you on a lonesome road
With nothing but the cold wind to call your own
And somewhere in the deep sweet silence
I wonder if you wonder too
And if I’ll be able to get through to you

Cause you don’t listen much
To what goes on inside
Until you get caught up in the turning tide
You’ll get over
You’ll get through
Cause you don’t ever think about the things you do

You’re walk on like a fire burning
Everything that’s in your way
Until all of options just fade away
And everything you’ve built up slowly
Crumbles down around your feet
And no one in the wide world’s going to care but me

Cause you don’t listen much
To what goes on inside
Until you get got up in the turning tide
You’ll get over
You’ll get through
Cause you don’t ever think about the things you do

You’ll get over
You’ll get through
Cause you don’t ever think about things you do

THE LUCKY ONES

Each day the light gets born
From the body of the night I’m torn
into the blaze of the sun lit morn I’m thrown
So I do what I can
With a beating heart and my own two hands
And a thirst to understand this show
And in the halls I hear it sung
The youth is wasted on the young
And these are words that can weigh a ton you know
But one day you’ll know what they meant
When you wonder where the wonder went
And all the world is sinking like a stone

We are the lucky ones
You mothers daughters you fathers sons
Don’t you grow old before your time
We are the holy rollers
Who take this weight upon our shoulders
And make the best out of life

Each night when the darkness dawns
And from the troubles of the day I’m drawn
Into the solace of the quiet song that grows
In everything I hear and see
And through the smoke in the air I breathe
And over arms that cover me like home
And on the streets where you hear it said
Our last hopes have long been dead
That’s just the noise ringing in your head you know

We are the lucky ones
You mothers daughters you fathers sons
Don’t you grow old before your time
We are the holy rollers
We take this weight upon our shoulders
And make the best out of life

BLACKBIRD THROUGH THE DARK

I see you on the avenue
Where you know them and they know you
Down so low there’s nowhere left to fall
And I watch you bend like twigs against the changing of the times
And whither under weight that weighs upon us all
Just hoping that someone will hear your call

Red dirt and sand may cover all the land
And everything may fall apart
But as soon as you know
You’ll be steady as you go on
Like a blackbird through the dark

I see your faith begin to sway
As promise seems to slip away
And all the days just break to test your will
And as the sun goes down on the west
And we all learn to live with less
Desire burns a hole you’ll never fill
It’s hand like a stain is on you still

Red dirt and sand may cover all the land
And everything may fall apart
But as soon as you know
You’ll be steady as you go
Like a blackbird through the dark

 

YOU'RE ENOUGH

Once we older than we are now
And our lungs were filled with rust
And we worked so long our heads bowed down
And our hearts only pushing dust

Now we sway and we roll
Though we have no control
Cause that’s just the way this goes
Cause times are hard and things they get rough
But you, you’re enough

Once we were tall as trees covered in snow
With no end to all we didn’t know
So even as the world around comes crumbling down
And all the cracks begin to show

Still we’ll sway and we’ll roll
Though we have no control
Cause that’s just the way this goes
Cause times are hard and things they get rough
But you, you’re enough

COME WHAT WILL

Oh, come what will in the lighting light of love
Where our arrows fly like moths to friendly fire
And we’ll sweep out the day
While all the new world sways
To the sound of our voices growing higher
We’ll turn our backs while yesterday goes up in smoke
And tear down the walls that bar the diamond sky
And we’ll lay them low so everyone will know
And we’ll see one and all with blinding sight

Cause the silence doesn’t seem so golden
When there’s nothing that you love
And what you have wont feel like freedom
If what you have is not enough

Oh come what will in the lighting light of love
Where our actions thaw the ground that we had frozen
And we’ll bury down our sorrows silver crown
Underneath the new path that we’ve chosen
We’ll turn our backs while yesterday goes up in smoke
And tear down the walls that bar the diamond sky
And we’ll lay them low so everyone will know
And we’ll see one in all with blinding sight

Cause the silence doesn’t seem so golden
When there’s nothing that you love
And what you have won’t feel like freedom
If what you have is not enough

And somewhere I know that there’s a reason
Why this emptiness can way a ton
And outside there’s a breeze that blows so sweetly
To return the many back to one

Cause the silence doesn’t seem so golden
When there’s nothing that you love
And what you have won’t feel like freedom
If what you have is not enough

 

SILENCE AND STORM

Inside of this room of sea salt and moon
Where torrents turn down the shell
And all is undone under the weight of their angry swell
I wait in the wings with my doors flung wide
To set a light the stage
Where this endless train of guilt and shame is emptied and unmade

When all the world is waking up on through the winding hours
And our reasons rise and tumble like the reach of skyward towers
We’ll walk on that wire clothes tattered and worn
And weather the weight through silence and storm

I’ll keep you far from the reach of the burden of proof
To burn through the days in the armor of youth
Where all worry wanes like daylights golden braid

When all the world is waking up on through the winding hours
And our reasons rise and tumble like the reach of skyward towers
We’ll walk on that wire clothes tattered and worn
And weather the weight through silence and storm

 

YOU WERE ALWAYS THE ONE

I’ve been in stuck in my ways
I’ve been rolling through days
Always afraid that things might get better
And I’ve been traveling down this road living free I suppose
All the while feeling tied and tethered

And I don’t understand why I play these games
And I trade the truth for lies
Cause you were always the one I was looking for babe
It just took time to realize

I’ve squandered away all the brightest of days
I Always had trouble keeping on the level
And I made a big show of letting you go
God knows I was some kind of devil

And I don’t understand why I play these games
And I trade the truth for lies
Cause you were always the one I was looking for babe
It just took time to realize

It’s the hardest thing by far
To see who were are
And then let the whole thing go
And float like the leaves that hang on the wind
Which ever way it blows

Now mistakes it’s true I’ve made more than a few
And I’m going to make many others
And it’s hard to see why we go through this sometimes
All the things that we do to each other

And I don’t understand why I play these games
And I trade the truth for lies
Cause you were always the one I was looking for babe
It just took time to realize

STARRY NIGHT

Well I remember back when I was young
And king of all my days
How I never used to worry about a thing
But time it turns the page
Cause now my head is set to spin
And my worries start where my worries end

And everyone’s making me promises that burn like city lights
But I’d trade every single one of them for a starry night
Where my mind don’t race like a spoiled child
And I feel the warm wind blow
Rolling down some dark highway
Far far away from this big show.

Well living everyday in this strange parade it gets under my skin
It’s always things you think you want the most that tend to cage you in
Until you make the same mistakes time and time again. 

And everyone’s making me promises that burn like city lights
But I’d trade every single one of them for a starry night
Where my mind don’t race like a spoiled child
And I feel the warm wind blow
Rolling down some dark highway
Far far away from this big show

 

TIME WON'T WAIT

The rain won’t stop and my brain won’t start
I’ve been carrying on this way for a week
While my thoughts they twist like the falling leaves
Strewn across the city streets
They say the devil you know is better than the one you don’t
Or so he’d have you think
But it all starts to look the same to me
When I feel myself starting to sink

Cause then it’s goodnight to who I thought I was before
Yesterday things seemed so clear but they’re not anymore
Maybe it’s all my pride
But I know time won’t wait for me just so I can decide

A siren sings it’s lonesome song holy as a hymnal hymn
And the night it blows me out  and it breathes me back in again
And all the things I’ve done they pile on like so much that I don’t understand
but when push comes to shove I guess we all get through anyway that we can

Cause then it’s goodnight to who I thought I was before
Yesterday things seemed so clear but they’re not anymore
Maybe it’s all my pride
But I know time won’t wait for me just so I can decide
But I know time won’t wait for me just so I can decide

THE LONG NIGHT

There’s a chill upon the air and days are down and dire
And all our doubt grows wings and our wickedness conspires
No on will sleep soundly in this tangled web of spite
We’re in for a long night

The relentless beat of time will take its heavy handed toll
Until the hurt runs through your veins from pole to icy pole
And the ones you love so well have all been lost from sight
Into the long night

Until the hand no longer holds fast the man made blade
And blood for blood our debt in hollow ground is laid
We’ll greet each other blindly in the absence of all light
Afraid of the long night

 

LIFE'S A SONG

You say life is a dream, where we can't say what we mean
maybe just some road side scene that we're driving past,
where there's no telling where we'll be, in a day or in a week,
and there's no promises of peace or of happiness.
Well is this why you cling, to every little thing,
and pulverize and derange all your senses,
maybe life is a song, but you're scared to sing along
until the very ending.

It's time to let go, of everything we used to know,
ideas of strength and who we've been,
It's time to cut ties that won't ever free our minds
from the chains and shackles that they're in

Tell me what good is saying that you're free, in a dark and storming sea,
where chained to your history, you're surly sinking fast,
you say that you know, that the good lord is in control,
and he's gonna bless and keep your tired and oh so restless soul,
but at the end of the day, when every price has been paid,
if you're gonna rise and sit beside him on some old seat of gold,
then won't you tell me why, you live like you're afraid to die, and
you'll die like you're afraid to go,

It's time to let go of everything we used to know,
ideas of strength, and who we've been,
It's time to cut ties, that won't ever free our minds,
from the chains and shackles that they're in.

Well, life is a dream, and we're all walking in our sleep,
you can see us stand in lines like we're dead upon our feet,
and we build our house of cards, then we wait for it to fall,
and always forget how strange it is, just to be alive at all.

 

TIME FOR MOVING ON

I don't remember where all this all got started now,
this fear inside of losing all control,
it comes on like the silent night
then builds till it'll blow, and
slowly makes my poor heart feel so old.
I'm always holding on to,
things that are here and then gone,
but now that I see how fast things are changing,
I guess it's high time that I was moving on.

I don't remember where all this was going,
now the days get closer while we get further apart,
but it's hard to wake from these beds we make all on our own,
It's easier just to keep living in the dark.
So I'm always holding on to,
things that are here and then gone,
but now that I see how fast things are changing
I guess it's high time that I was moving on.

 

HERE WE ARE

Here we are with burning skin, where we've always been,
and we all collide, in the rising tide, then weather in the wind.
We live our lives like hands are tied, and dead end days of dreaming,
embrace the race of everydays, but forsake the feeling.
Are we killing time, while these days unwind.

We can't see past our own sad stories,
and wonder what we're missing,
we can't see past our own sad stories,
and forget how to listen.

But did there ever come a time, when things weren't so defined,
we've given new names so our hopes and our pain,
but love just gets harder to find.
We wrestle with what we think we should say, and hang our selves out in
the air,
but most of the time, I think you'll find,
that we're just pretending to care,
and it's a crying shame, how'd we get so trained.

We can't see past our own sad stories,
and wonder what we're missing,
we can't see past our own sad stories
and forget how to listen,
We can't see past our own sad stories,
and wonder what we're doing,
we can't see past our own sad stories,
and forget who it is we're fooling.

Here we are with burning skin, where we've always been.

 

STAY WITH ME TOMORROW

In a quiet night room,filled with unfinished stories,
and a waif of smoke that lines the air,
body burning and a mind a raging,
you can find me there.
And I'll offer you nothing,
nothing worth saving,
and I'll ask for nothing in return,
just for you to stay with me tomorrow
if this world still turns.

If I could stop my dreaming, and curse the upward skies,
of all their April gales and shepherd gulls, riding side by side,
then there wouldn't be a word to breath, between you and I,
and it wouldn't break my heart when you called to say goodbye.
But if you're really leaving, leave nothing in my care,
everything I own is broken and far beyond repair,
I offered you nothing, and asked nothing in return,
just to stay with me tomorrow,
and watch this whole world burn.

But now you're really going, and the night it cuts like nails,
blowing hard, and fast, and full, they're boring holes into my sails.
So lead the way tomorrow to a world that's free from care,
and may the small amount of truth in life, somehow find you there,
but if you're really leaving, leave nothing in my care,
everything I own is broken, and far beyond repair,
I offered you nothing, and asked nothing in return,
just to stay with me tomorrow,
if this world still turns.

ARRIVE LIKE A WHISPER

I see you driving away, on some holiday,
just to leave it all behind,
because as wheels turn you don't feel the burn
of the things you carry inside.
You've been sharpening those blades, for too many days
you're tired of looking for a fight,
but now and again, my unfortunate friend,
we all do things we know aren't right.

You can call me up, on some rainy Sunday
cause you're all alone, but you know you won't be one day,
one day...
You're gonna ride the wind that rattles your cage,
you wont' feel no pain when you're wide awake,
and you'll give anyone more than they can take,
arrive like a whisper, go out with a bang.

Now you may bend or break, but that's the chance you take,
when you're hell bent and trouble bound,
but just so you know, the further you go,
it gets so hard to turn around.

You can call me up on some rainy Sunday,
cause you're all alone, but you know you won't be one day,
one day...
You're gonna ride the wind that rattles your cage,
you won't feel no pain when you're wide awake,
and you'll give anyone more than they can take,
arrive like a whisper, go out with a bang.

NOTHING'S LOST

In time we're all gonna show our age,
like colored birds in a dusty cage,
and the emptiness from which we came,
will strip us of our father's names.

And there's nothing lost, and nothing gained,
there's nothing different, and nothing's the same,
but while our hearts still stop and start,
and two eyes greet the day,
we'll pay the price we're taught to pay.

When all the years run down your face,
and all that's left is the pressure under grace,
will you arm your self with a cold mettle skin,
so no one gets out, and no one gets in.

And there's nothing lost, and nothing gained,
there's nothing different, and nothing's the same,
but while our hearts still stop and start,
and two eyes greet the day,
we'll play these games like we're taught to play.

 

PAWN'S SONG

Just take it nice and easy, don't go looking for a fight,
there's talk of revolution, and they're out in force tonight.
And down on the street where the whole city's turning out
singing we'll overcome,
they're met by the ranks, of soldiers and tanks,
who'll send them back to kingdom come.

A pawn don't know he's a pawn,
or he'd draw a line in the sand.
But when he's got his finger on the trigger,
a man don't know he's a man.
he don't know he's a man.

So we celebrate in silence, every moment that hearts still beat,
and we wear the weight of violence that's generations deep.
And sleep it comes slowly, when the whole city's glowing
like a fire on the sun.
While the whole world is sinking, there's some fools still thinking
there's peace at the end of a gun.

A pawn don't know he's a pawn,
or he'd draw a line in the sand,
but when he's got his finger on the trigger
a man don't know he's a man.
He don't know he's a man.

SAINT WITH A FEVER

You cast off the chains that tied and bound,
you're sick of their talk and won't carry their crown
you hollowed the space where they darkened the ground,
and with weary precision, you lowered them down.

Oh preacher, believer, saint with a fever,
you timid only son,
you better wipe that dust from the tip of your tongue
and sing what ain't been sung.

I've seen better days and I've seen the end,
I saw a grown man break, I saw a changed man mend,
and I've been in deep way over my head,
I heard the virgin weep, while the savior bled.

Oh preacher, believer, saint with a fever,
you timid only son,
you'de better wipe that dust from the tip of your tongue
and sing what ain't been sung.

I cast off the chains that tied and bound
I'm sick of their talk, I won't carry their crown
I hollowed the space where they darkened the ground,
and with weary precision, I lowered them down.

ONE BODY BREAKS

In restless sleep I dreamed a dream the other night,
where I rode the back of this black bird in flight,
who took me down, just to see what I could sew,
another light in the big city glow.
But when I touched down, I hardly recognized the place no more,
now there were signs, and they hung from every door.
One said please, one said no, and one said sure.
One said be careful boy you know it ain't safe no more.

One body breaks, one body's born,
One seam is sewn, you know one seam is torn,
One person waits for a sign that'll never come,
One person lives each day like it's their last setting sun.

I met a man and he wore a diamond ring,
he said the path we take, it can be a funny thing,
have you heard those trumpets sound,
have you heard those angels sing,
I cried dear lord, won't you spare me please.
His face grew red and his voice it went higher,
he said damn you boy, you'll be fodder for the fire,
I clicked my heals as I lit up a cigarette,
I cracked a smile and said I'll try not to forget.

One body breaks, one body's born,
One seam is sewn, you know one seam is torn,
One person waits for a sign that'll never come,
One person lives each day like it's their last setting sun.

THERE'S A DARKNESS

I can still fell the flames you left licking at my feet,
they're burning me up from the inside.
But when I walk your city streets,
there's a darkness on my mind.

It goes hey oh my
you best be brave boy you're bound to die,
hey oh no
your stalks may break but your seeds will grow.

But I can still hear the song ringing in my ears,
please let it sound as sweet in the coming years.
When my heart of stone cracks and finally breaks,
and the marrowed bone and tired muscles ache.

It goes hey oh my
you best be brave boy you're bound to die,
hey oh no
your stalks may break but your seeds will grow.

EVERYONE'S IN EVERYONE

We are blessed, and we are loveless,
we are cold and we are kind,
and we are stressed, we are so thankless,
we are deaf and we are blind.
And we are pain, and we are joyous,
and we're at a fork in the road,
and we go home to loving families,
and we are sleeping in the cold.

Everyone is in everyone is in everyone is everyone is in
everyone is in everyone is in everyone.

We are blessed, but we are restless
we are dumb and we are wise,
and we are young, and we are old
and see the world through tired eyes.
We are lost, and we are found, and we are
saved and depraved,
and we are poor and rich,
and we are sure that it's
of love that we are made.

and that everyone is in everyone is in everyone is in everyone is in
everyone is in everyone is in everyone is in everyone is in everyone is in
everyone is in everyone is in everyone is in everyone.

BULLETS BY THE DOOR

Please don’t fall,
On me Oh Lord,
In a fist of fire, ash and stone.
As the whole world sleeps,
On gold & silver sheets,
I’m picking up my bombs to make it known.

To anyone who stands,
Ten times taller than a man,
With winter teeth and snarl that block the road.
Soon you’re going to fall,
By the hands of big and small,
We’ll sing it loud,
And you will know.

You’d better try,
To keep your head up to the stars.
When you leave this earth,
With too many scars.

Try,
To keep your head up to the stars.
When you leave this earth,
With too many scars.

To anyone who knows,
What’s in hearts and what’s in bones.
They’ll break or wear away you can be sure.
We don’t always fight,
For God or truth, or right.
But I still keep my bullets by the door.

You’d better try,
To keep your head up to the stars.
When you leave this earth,
With too many scars.

Try,
To keep your head up to the stars.
When you leave this earth,
With too many scars.

DESPERATION EYES

December was just too sad,
For her to call a home.
Even with starry nights
And painted country roads.
There was nothing I could do for her
That I hadn't done,

And my desperation eyes showed
More than I think they should
Have shown.

She's just a whisper,
Paranoid of perfect people bound to disappoint
Her apartment life is easier
Than the one outside.
She can't get by on promises
That I always deny.

And my desperation eyes showed
More than I think they should
Have shown.

HOME FOR NOW

The sun goes down
And you're still here
I'm biting my tongue
And you're bending my ear
And what we have isn't clear.

So I go home to my
Sleeping misses
And shower her with my
Lazy kisses.
I can't stop acting my age
Cause hope stays or it fades.

And I should go home for now
Be a heavy hitter figure out where I went wrong
Home for now
You know I miss her and think about her all night long.

Now I'm bordering bored
My night been spent
Peeping sleepy faces off your tenement
And picking up the pieces

HONEST SKREW

Wake up next to you, honest screw.
Because you always go too far.
So, you slip slowly out, to sit in the next room
And eat your breakfast in the dark.
It won’t feed your cold and lonely heart

Hush, hush before you say
Something you can’t take away.
You step out for a cigarette,
You wait and you watch and you try to forget,
How the world doesn’t need you around.

You’re helplessly hollow
And you’re feeling the sting.
You’ve always had your doubts.
Last night’s naked kisses mock you over your shoulder
They light you up, then they blow you out.
Then they kill you without a sound.

Hush, hush before you say
Something you can’t take away.
You step out for a cigarette,
You wait and you watch and you try to forget,
How the world doesn’t need you around.
Hush, hush before you say
Something you can’t take away.

LOVE IS A BOMB

You're tired of waking up
To that big city drum.
The bustle of streets
Rattle and hum.
And the ones who show their colors know
You're tired of playing your part.
You just want someone to be there
When the lights go dark.

But you know the pain don't stop
Once you're had enough.
It sharpens its teeth
And pulls off its gloves.
But the hardest part to take
Is waiting for the show.
Sometimes love is a bomb baby,
Did you come to watch it blow?

When the city's fallen quiet
And everyone's inside
Tucked under sheets
In rooms with the night.
You can feel your world just freeze
And you watch it fall like snow.
Sometimes love is a bomb baby,
Did you come to watch it blow?

NOTHING'S WRONG

It won't be the same
I turned the lights down and
Then I hit the ground,
And even in the dark,
Lonleliness knows my name

But these eyes are strong
Because you'd never know
That anything was wrong.
I'll keep you holding on
Over and over again

There's a world of regret
Lying on my shoulders,
It's a cherry bomb
With eyes that glow,
Like two big shining stars
In a Hitchcock movie and,
My auto pilot is ready to go.

Now the mirror hurts
And everybody is gone,
And I'm an expert
At pretending that nothing's wrong.

There's no face to face
Because there's nothing tp say
I'm a million miles away
From you and yesterday

There's a world of regret
Lying on my shouders.
It's a cherry bomb
With eyes that glow,
Like two big shining stars
In a Hitchcock movie and,
My auto pilot is ready to go.

PAST POISONS

I pull up your drive and I lay on the horn.
Cling to the bottle that’s keeping me warm.
Sweet whiskey Jesus I wish I weren’t born.

You get up to leave and you hear in the dark,
Those early evening arrows missing their mark.
‘Cause they’re out to get you, but they don’t have the heart.

You’re just another one of last summer’s dreams,
Your eyes are blue, and your seas are green.
Some small consolation you get for a while
So drink down your sorrows and their crooked ass smiles

If you want me you know where I’ll be
Putting past poisons gently to sleep.
If you want me you know where I’ll be
Putting past poisons gently to sleep.

There’s a fire inside that makes your blood run.
The lovers who love you smell your smoke from your gun.
You keep your confusion to your hell made for one.

You’re just another one of last summer’s dreams,
Your eyes are blue, and your seas are green.
Some small consolation you get for a while
So drink down your sorrows and their crooked ass smiles

If you want me you know where I’ll be
Putting past poisons gently to sleep.
If you want me you know where I’ll be
Putting past poisons gently to sleep.

SILVER GIRL

That howling wind, it comes
Knocking on her door.
You know I want her here,
But it wants her more.
She’s a sad-eyed silver skinner,
With worn & broken decks.
And you can hear her moan,
As the main sail sets.

She says, “Hang on silver girl,
“It’s going to be alright, now”

“Alright I’ll throw you over”,
Comes the ocean’s pounding roar.
All she ever wanted,
Was someone to adore
Now the wind it swings around again.
And she turns the boat to stern.
Sometimes you have to sink,
Before you learn

“Hang on silver girl,
“It’s going to be alright”
“Hang on silver girl,
“It’s going to be alright, now”

Now the paralyzing cold,
Tells her, “This is it”.
But she can’t go down,
On a sinking ship
But the wind is out of breathe,
And the northern gales subside.
She gets her first sleep in days,
Under starry skies.

“Hang on silver girl,
“It’s going to be alright, now”

SOMETHING PRETTY

Here I am, where I’ve been
I’ve walked a hundred miles in tobacco skin,
And my clothes are worn & gritty.
And I know ugliness,
Now show me something pretty.
I was a dumb punk kid with nothing to lose
And too much weight for walking shoes.
I could have died from being boring.
As for loneliness,
She greets me every morning.

At the most I’m a glare,
I’m the hopeless son who’s hardly there.
I’m the open sign that’s always busted.
I’m the friend you need, but can’t be trusted.

At the most I’m a glare,

I’m the open sign that’s always busted.

And I know ugliness,
Now show me something pretty.

At the most I’m a glare,
I’m the hopeless son who’s hardly there.
I’m the open sign that’s always busted.
I’m the friend you need, but can’t be trusted.

SONS OF GUNS

Hopeless sons of guns, and tired city wives.
Will get used to the abuse when the devil tans their hides.
Our thin skinned angels have permanent blinders on their eyes.
They can’t pull the weight, because it’s heavy as sin,
And they can’t see the trouble we’re in.

That angry fool wind
Is going to blow again,
So hang on with all your might.
That hard stabbing pain,
Will always feel the same,
There’s nothing you can do to fight.

THUNDERBOLT

She’s a thunderbolt.
With guns & fire,
Two arms full of holes,
And nothing to hold.
She’s a restless sort
With secrets that wait
On corners in the dark,
To pinch with a pain,
To sting and to smart

God knows it gets so hard
To keep out the cold,
When you’re living in a house full of holes.

He’s just a close call
Who always acts tough,
But goes way too far,
Or not far enough.
But someday when it gets hard,
Hard just to breathe,
She’ll rest assured that
He’ll take the heat

God knows it gets so hard
To keep out the cold,
When you’re living in a house full of holes.

She’s a thunderbolt.
With guns & fire,
Two arms full of holes,
And nothing to hold.
Nothing to hold.
