lyrics

you were a friend i was a demon
you take medicine to help you sleep through the night
i was a waterfall you were the trees so tall
looking down on me what did you see
i was the wire you were the wildlife
devoured by fire discovered in the morning light
i was the cutting words you were the innocence
words that you've heard before but this time they make perfect sense

everyone was here but they left when you came
the father's in the kitchen blessing the saints in his name
the more that you listen the more you take the blame
the more that you look the more that you look the same

and he swears to you he's preaching only good news
but the more you pay attention the more you realize
it just isn't true
you hold onto him cause it feels like
you got nothing left to loose
you've made your decision
now you must follow through

I was the wire you were the wildlife
devoured by fire discovered in the morning light
