lyrics

Plant the fear upon my face, I won’t cry
I suppose you did the same, in your eyes
Hide the wind below your soul, a quiet dream
Is breathing inside your wounds, please forget,
The words you used to eat, alone, just before
The dawn becomes the god you were attending
The taste of this holy night is a chance
The taste of this grubby light, is a birth for you

I’ve got no hesitation, I’ve got no supposition
I buy the rain instead of let it leave the hills
I push the sun in your mouth
I push the clouds in your eyes
I swear the sky won’t never hear this rape
I’ve got no hesitation, I’ve got no supposition
Time is coming now to get more from this life

Distance always made me dream about you
Romance always made me doubt you
Silence always made me sleep inside you
Courage always made me go so far from you
Thistles always made me hate the cowardice I feel

I’ve got no hesitation, I’ve got no supposition
I buy the rain instead of let it leave the hills
I push the sun in your mouth
I push the clouds in your eyes
I swear the sky won’t ever hear this rape
Time is coming now to get more from this life
I push the sun in your mouth
I push the clouds in your eyes
I’ll buy your leaves instead of let you leave this heart we share

I can hide the dawn until you take your shoes off and become the night
We can hold the love that we fear until the trees begin their last parade
