The Hits The Scrapes

Ten more minutes then we should go

We won't be afraid anymore

Hands to the fire I held your face to the smoke

So sorry I lied to you

Those quiet eyes behind the candle's arc

Too dark to find our way

Tied to a fortune that would tear us apart

No-one will miss a thing

We swam to the shore to get out of our heads

Our hearts blind to the downpour

We lay close and kept warm while we smiled in our beds

Our scars drowned in the cold waves

Laughing at strangers we'd joke and we'd cry

Scared of what dawn might bring

We thought together we would get out alive

Somehow we're safe and sound

We'd take it in turns to watch over the town

Our clothes still soaked through with sweat

Ashamed of the embers that we scattered and burned

Forever remembered

We swam to the shore to get out of our heads

Our hearts blind to the downpour

We lay close and kept warm while we smiled in our beds

Our scars drowned in the cold waves

The tickets on yourself will weigh you through the ground
