lyrics

Bittersweet relief
Wrap your arms around me
Set us all free again
A bittersweet routine
I’m caught between
My friends and my enemies when
We sell our souls to the sun
And lose what we never had won

Your crying eyes are perfect storms
The curtains are torn
And you silently mourn your loss
Another scrap to burn
We trade what we’ve earned
For a suitcase and a guitar
In hopes that we might find
Some better peace of mind

And it’s on my trail and it’s on my trail
And it’s on my trail tonight

I’m staring at the sun
To bring me release
I’m down on my knees before you
Oh brother, what have you done?
At the point of your gun
You’ve made a killer of your unborn son
And in your twisted hell
You ring your freedom bell
