LYRICS

It's funny you can walk with a broken leg

You can walk without feeling pain

Then one day you notice somethings out of place

And you question if you're okay

Even though you know you're not okay

When did the cracking start?

Was it slow on your bones when the split apart?

Did someone grab a bat to whack and whack till the cracks hit your heart?

I mean when your leg split apart

It's funny how you can talk with a twisted tongue

Molidng breath from your lungs

But just like a rag that's wrung and wrung

Curses flow freely from twisted tongues

You can't take back words just sung

When did the twisting start?

Was it slow on your tongue when it twisted hard?

Did someone grab and turn to churn and churn till your tongue showed your heart?

I mean when your tongue was twisted hard

Irony is so beautifully confusing

I was right then I was wrong

It feels so right that I was wrong, yet

History's filled with big and little musings

If we know right and we know wrong that means truth must been round all along

Mistakes aren't mistakes if repeated with potent intention

Mistakes raise the stakes if repeated with pertant inflection

Don't miss the art

Don't miss the art

Mystery's both compelling and confusing

It feels right to not know all

It's alright that I feel small, yet

Periphery is the litany of musings

If we know right and we know wrong sufficient words must been round all along

Mistakes aren't mistakes if repeated with potent intention

Mistakes raise the stakes if repeated with pertant inflection

Don't miss the art

Don't miss the art

Mistakes aren't mistakes

Mistakes aren't mistakes

Don't miss the art

Don't miss the art

Roses are red

Violets are arguably blue

It's kinda been said

Still I think I'm saying I...

You know I was so confused but you did not let go

That we were right with big brown eyes you said, "I love you so"

You freaked me out you know

Cause I think I feel

I think I'm saying

Roses are red

Violets are arguably blue

It's kinda been said

Still I'm trying to say that I...

You were off to Colorado and it turns out I missed you like hell

Love's not a feeling but I feel it strongly

So I wrote you this song to free me

Will you?

Say you feel it too

Cause I think I feel

I'm trying to say

Roses are red

Violets are arguably blue

It's kinda been said

Still I think I'm saying I...

I'm trying to say that I...

I know I'm saying I...

Love you

I think we can be dragons

Cause fire can come from our mouths

I know cause I have seen it

It burnt my family's forest to the ground

Sparks spew from our tongues

And burn mighty trees down

But we can't fly so I wonder why

Flames can still come from our mouths

Cause flames are still coming from our mouths

The dragon comes and rears his head

Pouring from our mouths the fire spreads

He's used our word for far too long to burn ourselves with our own wrongs

Human nature truly leaves us for dead

I know a dragon slayer who bears the name of Love

When Love resides the fire dies

It must take a king to tame the tongue

It truly takes a king to tame the tongue

The dragon comes and rears his head

Pouring from our mouths the fire spreads

He's used our word for far too long to burn ourselves with our own wrongs

Human nature truly leaves us for dead

I said human nature truly leaves us for dead

Look at the clouds with a face shining like the sun

This one's words appear like swords shooting out like a gun

The dragon roars

We thought we were left for dead

The serpent bites the slayer's heel

But the slayer turns and stomps on his head

The crowds yes we cheer and we lift up our hands

Cause when we thought, "we're done"

And when we thought, "we're dead"

The slayer stepped in and he crushed the serpent's head

No longer do we run

No longer burn down our lands

Let's rip out our tongues let these fire's be quenched

Let the rain drown it out while we re-learn to dance

In the honor of the one who gave us back this land

No longer do we run cause now we can stand

I look to the forest that embers burnt down

But now all I see are sprouts rising from the ground

I fall to my knees cause in grace I can't drown

Cause we were once so lost but now we have been found

I know a dragon slayer

Who bears the name of Love

Left to die but now alive it came from his mouth it is done

Came straight from his mouth it is done

Stability my old friend, I don't know what went wrong

I know we didn't get along for very long but even still

I thought we had some fun

But when I turned around you were gone

Remember that friend you had, the one that people called Respect

People looked up to him, everyone anywhere he went

But when I turned around with you he left

Stability my old friend, was it something I said?

I know I spoke bad things of you but worked it through

Long ago well before you left

I thought we put that conflict to bed

Stability my old friend, remember what we used to have?

It didn't seem so bad

So long, now that it is so long...

I don't even know if I want you back

I don't wanna give up what I have

I made a friend that showed up when you left

If its you or them then you can't come back

Dependance is this friend I named

She does want any wealth or fame

She's actually mentioned in this kingdom saying...

To find your life you gotta lose it

Wake me up, from my dreams

Cause I've been scared it's frightening

When I wake I think it's me

The thing that haunts all the dreams I dream

It's funny when you think you're great

And all of your works are thrown in your face

And you question if you've ever did anything right

It's funny when you think you're pure

And already sin's knocked down your door

And you walk away from the mirror of a pure and holy word

And you forget who you were

You forget who you were

Dim the lights and let me dream

Cause I'd rather run inside my dreams

But I've been up when I'd rather leave

Cause God's been changing my weak and feeble needs

It's funny when you've fallen down

And the only thing that's changed is you lost your crown

Faith really changes everything you want

There's only God and everything else

There's things from Him and things from hell

But only room enough for one on the shelf

I've got only room enough for one on the shelf

I'm learning hard and it's drawn out long

But the more I die the more life comes

Wisdom says to follow where it goes

Wisdom's hard but I'll trust in what she knows

Knowing you is like a dance

Hand in hand with your silloutte

Just spin around, just spin around and sway with me

It's love that holds us, love that binds

Love that makes this so divine

Just take my hand

Just take my hand and follow me

I didn't know then what I didn't know yet

That we could fall or we would trip

Let's set our feet and do this right

Let's take our time it takes some time

We've fallen hard yet are picked back up

I wouldn't change a second

It's beautiful that we are tied

Together we fall and together we rise

I'll dip you down

I'll dip you down

Just trust me

God's in charge of both our feet

He makes them move o so sweet

Just close your eyes

Just close your eyes and feel the beat

We are here both step in step

The Lord's in charge of what is next

Just take a bow

Just take a bow with me

Hey brother

Remember the times we'd play ball in the street

Run and laugh and play and scrape our knees

Till our friend got in trouble with his mother

Hey brother

Remember the times we'd used to go to Colorado

We'd play games and laugh but looking back I see a shadow

Of what's to come

Innoncence is taken in a second

Weariness doesn't need time to build

And what I need is for you to think and remember this for me

Hey brother

Remember the times that I would hide when they'd yell

The tables flew as the distance between us swelled

The basement was a shelter and a cover

Hey brother

Remember the day that our world it fell apart

You ran off and I was lost and played the part

Ya I played the part

Innoncence is taken in a second

Weariness doesn't need time to build

And what I need is for you to think and remember this for me

Hey brother

Remember the time you found me crying on the floor

You laid a book that shook my soul down to it's core

Without a word

Innocence is granted in a second

Weariness still takes time to heal

And what I need is for you to think and remember this for me

Andrew, I plead

Please don't let me fall from memory
