Album: Genetic Engines
Genre: Folk Rock
Lyrics: Click To View Or Hide Song Lyrics
No lights in the city tonight
the worst outtage we've ever known
the power's out I don't see your eyes
and these locks have been compromised
they won't keep them out
and this is when I said:
"It feels like death might win."

Your sister died in the street last week
they clubbed her head and broke her bones
her husband fled but lost his feet
they tracked him down at the general store
and flung him straight through the glass
and this is when you said:
"It feels like death might win."

We fled the city to gather our strength
and count the guns and swords between us
to count the men for our revenge
believing God was on our side
to make our violence right
to make our enemies say:
"It feels like death might win."

Lyrics: Click To View Or Hide Song Lyrics
Fire wakes me licking my arms
casting monsters behind my form
I'm hiding out past the docks in the trees
praying my scent doesn't carry in the breeze
in the breeze, in the breeze...

I made it to the city
made a name for myself
call me Isaac Andrew Hamilton
call me John Alexander Smith
call me anything that you wish
that you wish, that you wish...

I've got an alibi
just gotta tell some lies

As long as I can forget what I know
I've no idea how far knowing goes
through the trails down the river to the sea
I'd give anything to stop being me
Even me, even me...
