lyrics

We equip like compasses
Row the boats and sink the ships
First waves hit with open arms
Second ones set off the alarms
On rivers of salvation bound
Hiding in the corners, cry falling down
Two by two in our new life
Spitting on the life docks, drinking overnight

We don’t know the truth anymore than they do
We don’t know the truth anymore than they do
We thought all we knew were just words to see through
Cuz we don’t know the truth anymore than they do

Throwing arrows into the sky
Pretending they go somewhere
This is how we try
In futures that our parents saved
We grow up feeling useless and go against the waves
It’s a fruitless search to toast the night to
A living breathing actor is flowing out of you
You could play the leading role
Beauty of a monster with the serpent of a soul

We don’t know the truth anymore than they do
We don’t know the truth anymore than they do
I could give to you anything but bad news
Cuz we don’t know the truth
We need more than they do

Don’t bang on the walls
We are our own faults
Don’t wake tearing down
In the dream I’m drowning in
I will swim again
I will grow these fins
Rescue workers dim cigarettes in water
For the flares to find my body in

We don’t know the truth anymore than they do
We don’t know the truth anymore than they do
I could give to you anything but good news
Cuz we don’t know the truth
We need more than they do
