lyrics

when you sang those words
I felt like you knew me
you held your pen like a sword
and drove it right through me
I saw my own blood
writing my heart's demise
twisting and spilling my guts
for all the world's eyes

I'm trying to make something new
out of what you left behind
yeah but your old spirit has a hole in it
your parts don't fit with mine

protective obsession
and willful ignorance
I heard your confession
still I spoke in your defense
how could my love be so misjudged
how could my love be fallible
punching the air and kicking up dust
crying like an animal

I'm trying to make something new
out of what you left behind
yeah but your old spirit has a hole in it
your parts don't fit with mine

I wanna lift you high
so I can watch you come down
from your pedestal of lies
with your barbed wire crown
how many times must you be killed
how many gallons will you bleed out
how many idols do I have to build
to prove that I'm devout

I'm trying to make something new
out of what you left behind
yeah but your old spirit has a hole in it
your parts don't fit with mine

I'm trying to make something new
out of what you left behind
yeah but your old spirit has a hole in it
your parts don't fit with mine
