i could walk for miles looking for those eyes
to see the light i need
before the [bad word] sealing up my fate
yea and listen close for the ringing tone
and [bad word] to it i'll be
and take the road that was cut for you and me

i couldn't wait for the call
ever since you were all
and everything to break me from my sleep

silence took me fierce and blindly
shadows became one
i found the floor with the broken boards
and the grits for the mill gone

with nothing left but a chord to stretch
and a word to get on by
sometimes you reach for the bottle
before the sky
yea well we all rise to fall in time
like governments gone wrong
and reverberate a call to arms
to cut or wear out our tongues

i couldn't wait for the call
ever since you were all
and everything to break me from my sleep

silence took me fierce and blindly
shadows became one
i found the floor with the broken boards
and the grits for the mill gone

so tell me lady whatcha say that we
liberate some love
i've got it on for you
and nothing to lose or left to prove this world

say what you want i don't mind

silence took me fierce and blindly
shadows became one
i found the floor with the broken boards
and the grits for the mill gone

so tell me lady whatcha say that we
liberate some love
i've got it on for you
and nothing to lose or left to prove this world
