The Dogs

(álbum: Innocents - 2013)

We started like children
Lost in a building by the wall
Hope lost to fear, and
Nothing was clear, when
When we lost it all

This is how, how we tried
This is where, where it died
This is how, how we cried
Like the dogs left outside

We were so cautious
Guarding our losses viciously
I'm never brave and
Tender like ravens by the sea

This is how, how we tried
This is where, where it died
This is how, how we cried
Like the dogs left outside

I would just shirk while
You did the work
And took the blame
Winning those battles
Losing the war
What did I gain?

This is how, how we tried
This is where, where it died
This is how, how we cried
Like the dogs left outside

These words are like sharp knives
Ruining our lives every time
Or, crying to our son
I was just so wrong every time

This is how, how we tried
This is where, where it died
This is how, how we cried
Like the dogs left outside
