The Spinto Band - Keep Them Alive lyrics
[The Spinto Band - Keep Them Alive lyrics]
I wanted to know if I could scare you first
If I could scare you first
Then I wouldn't have tried
To get up the nerve to open the closet
Or to reach up and to find
The bullets to the gun
To find the bullets to this gun
I wanted to see if I could damage it
If I could damage it
Then I Wouldn't have lied to Emily's father
About how the window broke
I told him we were just
Playing a game of catch
We were just playing a game of catch
And just after explaining
That I couldn't take it back
I couldn't give it back
I shoulda take back take back tell you that
We will keep them alive
Knee deep in high tide we keep them alive
I happened to be at the pavilion when
At the pavilion
When it was returned to the lake
Under the aspen follow the anchor check the
Cooler buckets and since you know for sure
Not saying unless you know for one
I wanted to know if I could bury first
If I could dare say worse
Worse is coming this is the worst
Over the aspen
Open the closet to a wrinkled dress
This piece of fabric doesn't match
This piece of fabric doesn't match
And just after explaining that I
Couldn't take it back
I couldn't give it back
I shoulda t-t-tell you that
We will keep them alive
Knee deep in high tide we keep them alive
(background 'ah')
If I could scare you first
Then I wouldn't have tried
To get up the nerve to open the closet
Or to reach up and to find
The bullets to the gun
To find the bullets to this gun
I wanted to see if I could damage it
If I could damage it
Then I Wouldn't have lied to Emily's father
About how the window broke
I told him we were just
Playing a game of catch
We were just playing a game of catch
And just after explaining
That I couldn't take it back
I couldn't give it back
I shoulda take back take back tell you that
We will keep them alive
Knee deep in high tide we keep them alive
I happened to be at the pavilion when
At the pavilion
When it was returned to the lake
Under the aspen follow the anchor check the
Cooler buckets and since you know for sure
Not saying unless you know for one
I wanted to know if I could bury first
If I could dare say worse
Worse is coming this is the worst
Over the aspen
Open the closet to a wrinkled dress
This piece of fabric doesn't match
This piece of fabric doesn't match
And just after explaining that I
Couldn't take it back
I couldn't give it back
I shoulda t-t-tell you that
We will keep them alive
Knee deep in high tide we keep them alive
