A Rickety Bridge
Well as soon as you got out from the aim of the sniperYou took a rest next to the fangs of a viperBut it's raining tonight for youI know you love the rain, I watch you drink it up and strike another flameAnd when you came to show your face to the animals, who swore it was intangible to orchestrate a radicalI saw your eyes go from lower case to capitalIt's like you had to pull the rug from underneath yourself to feel aliveI've seen the size of that painting in your mind And I can be the frame when it arrivesWe'll drive until the sun comes upWith a better way to burn us and when it does we'll make our getaway and surface when the moon is full, it's beautifulWe left the root of all evil rotten in the groundWe're bound to live another way, like some underpaid runaways.It's an understatement. Turn the page, there's too much to say.So from the pavement we walk into the faces we haunt into the weight of the cross we bear, we repair the stitches and beware the witches who feed where we live, it's, it's a rickety bridge. (3x)The kids are sickly, they're panicked, and they're anxious.They're lookin' for a woman with a command of the languageWe watch them beat their hands against their cagesFrom the outside they're lookin' to get back inAnd as soon as they got out from the aim of the sniperThey took a rest next to the fangs of the viperBut it's raining tonight for youI know you love the rain, I watch you drink it up and strike another flameAnd when you came to show your face to the animals, who swore it was intangible to orchestrate a radicalI saw your eyes go from lower case to capitalIt's like you had to pull the rug from underneath yourself to feel aliveSo from the pavement we walk into the faces we haunt into the weight of the cross we bear, we repair the stitches and beware the witches who feed where we live, it's, it's a rickety bridge.
