Raynes - Collapse lyrics

Artist: Raynes

album: Set Fire To The Foxes


I walked through the walls with my chest out again
Took off with the gates when they closed closed me in
The words we exchanged were so secret and strange
I knew that nobody would guess
That my hair was a skirt that you wrapped around your hips
As I paint wild honey upon your lips
You knew I was nervous, did you do this on purpose?
I might as well settle for less
Well, how do you start to carve out a hole from a heart?
Did somebody tell you they're hollow?
The deeper and deeper you'll go
'Til the walls that you break through collapse onto you

Your brothers were scared so they tore out my eyes
They draped me in chains and they left me blind
I pulled at the locks and set fire to the foxes
But no one was listening then
Well, how do you start to carve out a hole from a heart?
Did somebody tell you they're hollow?
The deeper and deeper you'll go
'Til the walls that you break through collapse onto you

Well, I could drag this to it's obvious end
But what kind of man would I be then?
The gods in the front porch
If that's what I'm meant for
I'll take it and never look back
Well, how do you start to carve out a hole from a heart?
Did somebody tell you they're hollow?
The deeper and deeper you'll go
'Till the walls you break through give way to a flood
You scream and your mouth fills with blood
But all you could do now is swallow
And live like you found what you need
When you're brought to your knees
Don't come running to me
