Young Guns Album

A notion cold as the night air
starts within in my head
spreads like ink right through my veins
all of our kings are dead
I am not a scholar and I don't believe in fate
surely as I share your blood will I end up the same?

If there's one thing I have learned
in my short time on this earth
devotion should be owed not earned
only you determine what you're worth

We are set free
we are the sons of apathy
though it's not right
it's all we know
and there's no one left to follow

We are the heirs to empty thrones
and promises unkept
we sit and watch the empire burn with mild disinterest,
but we are not forsaken,
we have a gift worth more than gold
we've been shown how not to live
by gracious kings of old

If there's one thing I have learned
in my short time on this earth
devotion should be owed not earned
only you determine what you're worth

We are set free
we are the sons of apathy
though it's not right
it's all we know
and there's no one left to follow

My father was an oak
the earth moved when he spoke
my father conquered seas
but was not there for me

I was told when I was young,
That I could one day hold the world right as it spun,
But now it seems as though
I've made a mess of everything I've ever done
Could I forget it all?
Follow the setting sun..

It's crystal clear to me
That's I've been killing time
Nothing going to stand in my way
Cos I'm not done,
Even if the sun sets I will start a fire
To change your mind

A scar is just a mark,
Not a burden but a start of something new
Even stars in the end fade,
Given time coast lines will change so why won't you?
Could I forget it all?
I've lost teeth, failed every test,
My broken hearts the only thing of any value I have left

It's crystal clear to me
That I've been killing time
Nothing's going to stand in my way
Cos I'm not done,
Even if the sun sets I will start a fire
To change your mind

You will see me in the dark,
Burning brighter than the stars
I defy the motion of the setting sun,
I hold my head up high cos I'm still here.

It's crystal clear to me
That I've been killing time
Nothing's going to stand in my way
Cos I'm not done,
Even if the sun sets I will start a fire
To change your mind

It's crystal clear to me
It's crystal clear to me
start of something new
cos I'm not done,
Even if the sun sets I will start a fire
To change your mind

I carry my mistakes
And she carries them too
When all I see are bruises black
She shows me the blue

I remember the tears in the morning
The dread of the veil gently falling to the floor

I'll never know divinity
So inadequately I carve
In meter and verse
She believes in God
But I believe in her

When my ship has run it's course
She steers me back out to the sea
She won't let me run aground

I've seen the storms she's met, I've seen the tears in secret shed
She sees me as an eagle though I am just a crow
She sees me as a diamond though I'm just a weathered stone

I'll never know divinity, so inadequately I carve
In meter and verse
She believes in God, but I believe in her

I stole a glimpse of you in pain
And I'll take the image to my grave
You look towards the heavens, and I look up to you
I kneel because there are no words, an act will have to do

She believes in God but I believe in...
...no divinity
So inadequately I carve
In meter and verse
She believes in God, but I believe in her.

A continent of doubt wieghs heavy on my mind
How long can my brittle bones bend?
Before they yeild and snap

I don't wanna know
Cos I'm so scared
It's not gonna get easier than this

Cause it's too much to bear, my darling
The weight of the world
And I would carry it for you
But please don't ask me too
Cause the weight of the world
Is a burden I can't bear

Maybe it's gravity
that pulls her to my chest
Not the fear that she is the source of what little strength I've got left

I don't wanna know
Cos I'm so scared
It's not gonna get easier than this

Cause it's too much to bear, my darling
The weight of the world
And I would carry it for you
But please don't ask me too
Cause the weight of the world
Is a burden I can't bear

My horizon lies a jagged line
Oh I can clearly see
The mountains I've yet to climb
I'll get there if it kills me

-Intro-

Every night i hope to..(?) its another spent in (sleep?)
Never thought i'de fall....(religion?) baby.
Come and save me from this pain.

(Chorus)
I wanna sleep but i hear voices, calling us.

and you heal me, )make me strong?).
cuz im searching for another silent night, but all i hear is voices..

(Chorus)
I wanna sleep but i hear voices,
I hear them calling out to me.
This winter kiss is epic poison (let me in..)
And i will never be the same again.
And i will never be the same again. (let me in..)
And i will never be the same again.
