lyrics

It takes a lot to believe in something bigger than you
All the time you deceive yourself when nothing else holds true

Don’t give it away
Give it away now
I know you want me to say
What does it mean now

Somewhere high up above
All the labor to love
The broken wings of a dove
You see: I can’t escape from me

It takes some skill to conceive the wickedness I have done
A life of moral turpitude is no way to have fun

Don’t throw it away
Throw it away now
I know you want me to play
A sorrowful song now

Somewhere deep underground
There’s no turning around
My self-made burial mound
You see: I can’t escape from me

Don’t give it away
Give it away now
I know you want me to say
What does it mean now

Somewhere high up above
All the labor to love
The broken wings of a dove
You see: I can’t escape from me
