I’ve been down
hunched beneath the sound
over blown
and somewhat out of bounds
the fever moon
pulls hard through show and tell
lovin’ you
brings me to this hell
oh well
open your eyes girl
it’s gone on way too long
we’ve come so far now but it’s time to move along
but look at yourself
you’ve become so strong
I sit here beside you
and sing our song
alive and well
around the prison grounds
you lose the shield
but gain the sword you found
we found
it’s a northern trait
I’ve come to know so well
in a blurry place
where cherry blossoms fell
in hell
open your eyes girl
it’s gone on way too long
I’m not right and
you know you’re not wrong
but look at yourself
you’ve become so strong
I sit here beside you
and sing our song
but it’s in me to give
feeble glory
all for the kin
mama to behold
you offer your warmth
feeling sorry
how bout’ me and you
look at yourself
you’ve become so strong
I sit here beside you
and sing our song.
