lyrics
The boarders shut forever
and the markets fell to spoil
from the pith into the earth
the world turned to rot
She found you in the bike sheds
head tilted from the fall
staring at the loose paints
that coats your children's walls
well I guess you won't be needing them
I guess you won't be needing them
I guess you won't be needing them
anymore
The summer on my back
as leaves fracture the sun
shining light where there once was a one
and staring at east
my hands began to quake
as the bell began a herald its mistake
and I didn't know your face
and I didn't know your face
and I didn't know your face
from my own
and I didn't know your tears
how could I know your tears?
I didn't know your tears
what's to come.
Physics stopped it's toying
and the air refused to move
repose where days had chose to hold their breath
I couldn't hear a heartbeat
or the siren on the hill
the only thing you left me
was the still
and the patterns on my eyelids
the patterns on my eyelids
the patterns on my eyelids
you are gone
and I should have cut you down
I should have cut you down
I should have cut you down
just to know you could still fall
but blue rope is strong
blue rope is strong
blue rope is strong
blue rope is strong
and if blue rope can hold you head
then blue rope can hold my heart.
and the markets fell to spoil
from the pith into the earth
the world turned to rot
She found you in the bike sheds
head tilted from the fall
staring at the loose paints
that coats your children's walls
well I guess you won't be needing them
I guess you won't be needing them
I guess you won't be needing them
anymore
The summer on my back
as leaves fracture the sun
shining light where there once was a one
and staring at east
my hands began to quake
as the bell began a herald its mistake
and I didn't know your face
and I didn't know your face
and I didn't know your face
from my own
and I didn't know your tears
how could I know your tears?
I didn't know your tears
what's to come.
Physics stopped it's toying
and the air refused to move
repose where days had chose to hold their breath
I couldn't hear a heartbeat
or the siren on the hill
the only thing you left me
was the still
and the patterns on my eyelids
the patterns on my eyelids
the patterns on my eyelids
you are gone
and I should have cut you down
I should have cut you down
I should have cut you down
just to know you could still fall
but blue rope is strong
blue rope is strong
blue rope is strong
blue rope is strong
and if blue rope can hold you head
then blue rope can hold my heart.
