David De La Hoz

You bet we fight, until pressed against six feet of distance and 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 anyway

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
