Letter To Yesterday

(album: The Shadow Of Heaven - 2013)

I saw the merchants bore their sheds
I sent a letter to yesterday
It told you everything would be allright
No
I'm sorry but that was yesterday
Hey
But I was wishing I could change it
Standing on the deck where canonballs fly
Risking my neck
Just to change my name?
'Cause I love you like a son
You're my midnight sky
All covered in rainbows
Hidden in light
I'm on my knees
'Cause I need to be broken
I need to be right
If I am a loser
Then so is my life
But I'm taking the time
And winning the right
To explode into pieces
Into the night
And come back in flowers
In time
As long as they're mine
As long as they're mine
I cursed this blessing
That's on my name
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
I cursed myself for such a fragile frame
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Though this treason that's in my eyes
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
All this blood that runs in my veins
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oh there's blood
Oooh
