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
