How do you hang the weight of the world on a string
When you know on day it will fall
And who will you call when it all burns down around you
You cannot fall back on yourself
Live your life on the edge of forgiveness and sin
Claim it makes you fell alive
Cause I can't remember all the lessons I've been told
Follow the words written a thousand years ago
I've been running almost all of my life
Can you tell me if I'm safe here tonight
And how do you watch as bombs come like rain
And not tell a soul how you love them
Count your days and pile on mistakes
Its the only way we truly learn
Guard your heart from prophets and preachers
The road to salvation is paved with gold
Cause I can't remember all the lessons I've been told
Follow the words written a thousand years ago
I've been running almost all of my life
Can you tell me if I'm safe here tonight
And how do you watch as bombs come like rain
And not tell a soul how you love them
Guard your heart from prophets and preachers
The road to salvation is paved with gold
Cause I can't remember all the lessons I've been told
Follow the words written a thousand years ago
I've been running almost all of my life
Can you tell me if I'm safe here tonight
