The Chariot, Dan Smith - David De La Hoz lyrics

[The Chariot, Dan Smith - David De La Hoz lyrics]

You bet we fight until
Pressed against six feet
Of distance and earth
Yeah, we make mistakes that
Our fathers have made
And my troubles come up from the earth
My teeth, grit, fierce and I beg to you
Understand "Grace" is my name
Tongues run amok and
Fangs will breed on fangs
So keep your secrets in the mattress
And pray they don't escape
This impossible act of building our bridges
Much faster than they burn stay
Because, I can't afford distance
It's shadowing my heart
And what good is a sinner
If we haven't got grace (Save the son)
My troubles boulevard across the land
(Save the son)
They keep their secrets in the mattress
(Save the son) discard
(Save the son)
I'm trying to keep it in the right hands
Medic, medic, medic i have given up all my
Weapons and I've headed home

Well I can see the words inside your silence
But, I can't speak about your pain for you
How long can you burn for anyways
Turning over and back again
With tongues ablaze
Like, like lions without teeth hungry
Staring at the forest with flames in our eyes
Just talking with the trees
If we can drift long enough, we'll be home
Sails blown by the fire within
Pushing me to you
And you can live inside of me sewn together
Breaking and healing
Growing and breaking again and again
And you are a part of me
You are my home and I'm your home
But, I'm no place you'll want to be
So I'm out here again sparks
Hid behind my teeth i won't say a word for
Fear of failure spreading
It takes some of us longer to
Get to our dead ends
We have old blood stained with loose living
Ran through charcoal hearts to make it red
And we can be on fire again you and I
You want this? Well say what you want
Say what you mean!
We can talk lung to closed ear
Head inside of hand
Turning over again together
Cut up for the cheap heat
Running through our veins
And we can lay brick by broken brick
Our ashes pushed in between
And build this road back home to
Where we want to be
We are not our own, we are the same

Let fangs give birth to fangs
But I can't walk away let them breed
Fangs give birth to fangs but
I can't walk away let them breed
