city of salt – i was wrong lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there’s no use trying to cough this dirt out of your lungs
i’m not denying that i was wrong but now we’re nothing
we’re just the shape of what we were
some lovely music that can’t be heard

[verse 2]
lord, i’ve been fighting to pry this stake out of your heart
when we were lions, we played the part
but now we’re sheep! chasing some glorious retreat
some gl-ss of heaven that would go down easy
am i living, am i dead?

[verse 3]
please give me something, send me a lion i can tame
paint me a painting that can’t be framed
then i’ll believe! i’ll sing those songs you’d have me sing
i’ll lay forever under mountains crashing
down!

[verse 4]
this will seem silly when we’re older than now
you’re like a dream my eyes are sleeping for
and when the lights go out, they’ll litter the ground
and we can choose what we’ve been living for

[verse 5]
and i am not the kind to take things easy
i know you’ve understood that sound before
if i could color-code my perfect endings
i doubt that i would want them anymore

[verse 6]
and we were sailors on a sea so endless
i thought that we would never find a sh-r-
and while you’re watching all these waves receding
i feel my mind was buried by the storm

[verse 7]
i know you’ve never been so fond of living
i know that i have always felt the same
but if we crash, at least the flash might
find a way into our brains
