lyrics

Seems lately that my skin is made of dirt
Funny that the hands that held the world could lose their worth
Blame it on conscience, blame it on pills
We are generation cleanup, the last blood to be spilled
This blood from the heart on my sleeve
Will turn my smile red believe me
Ask me to carry them once more
Faceless, certain of being unsure

Please forgive me as I drown
In this cynic's bed
Kings and jesters are the same
When they're dead

They spent years digging shallow graves
Broadcasting diamonds on the airwaves
But if life is a river, aren't we all just stones
Chasing after the unattainable?
Who needs broken heroes in their head
Who needs flowers when they're dead
Too many footsteps walking out that creaky door
Too many voices passed out on the floor

Please forgive me as I drown
In this cynic's bed
Kings and jesters are the same
When they're dead

Sacraments of living just to breathe
I'm so scatterbrained, I need release
