when you only dream of endings

when not enough is all you've got

when the streets are home, and the homes are empty 

when what you're selling won't be bought

​

when you're all alone together

when the war comes for you

when you're up against the writing on the wall

what can you do?

​

CHORUS

don't cut and run

don't play the fool

between the devil and the blue

can't take me down

can't make me pay

can't make me waste this life away

​

when you build the bridge to burn it

when you cut the rope you climb

when you got nothing in your pocked

when you got nothing left to find

​

when you're drinking down the moon

when you're sleeping off the sun

when all you've built longs to fall

what can be done?

​

CHORUS

​

when every city is an iron ship float upon the flame

when every keg is tapping dust, and every tap is just the same

when every day is a disaster, but disaster's a relief

when every single moment is falling to its knees

​

CHORUS
