Keep me safe Oh soldier, keep me warm I've been misled a thousand times before
Through the rain, across the southern states I've drawn a line I wish I could ignore
Lay back down The dirt upon your brow is a barricade and I'm the screaming crowd
Breathing slows I'm silent cause I know I've played the part And now the curtain's closed
And maybe if she sang with more than her body, they would listen with their hearts She falls short of every dream she once had, fleeting one by one from this misfortune
Used to play and weave through every day along the path of ageless beauty I came here, saw new amounts of fear through the doors of desperation
And maybe if she sang with more than her body, they would listen with their hearts She falls short of every dream she once had, fleeting one by one from this misfortune
Scared to reconcile, I'll sit here for a while …every inch of this bed has held my head.
And maybe if she sang with more than her body, they would listen with their hearts She falls so short of every dream she once had, fleeting one by one from this misfortune
