Carry The Banner

(album: Cavalcade - 2010)

This morning crawls
My motivation's been snowed in
And I finally caught that glimpse
Of the edge I've been avoiding

So try your best
To keep these bullets from my chest
As I wipe the blood out from your sweat
Talking seems useless, doesn't it?

Live through, live strong
Carry on and on and on
No more false-start life
At traffic lights, no

Like trying to shake a dream
You might not quite remember completely
We're killing ourselves to live
(Inhale, exhale unlike anybody)

We've just been bleeding
Feel the cold swell in your throat
When this shit is getting old

Live through, live strong
Carry on and on and on
No more false-start life
At traffic lights, no

Live through, live strong
Carry on and on and on
No more false-start life

Don't disagree
That what we've come to ain't so pretty
And all I can think
Is we're begging for change in our own way

Cry knowing
I'm the one who let you down when leaving town
A moment of clarity

Don't
Let it tear out your throat
After chasing lines all fucking night

And the wrongs you shouldn't write about
I speak from experience (Of all of the fear in us)

Live through, live strong
Carry on and on and on
No more false-start life
At traffic lights, no

Live through, live strong
Carry on and on and on
No more false-start life
