lyrics

So to which saint should I be praying?
I need the one who's been known to stop the bleeding
All the smokes and lines, sometimes it's too much just to take
And it's the corners of your eyes that give you away

So for which land are you leaving?
I heard there's one out there with love for sale and a tinfoil army
I saw you with your angry eyes in the corner of the mirror
Let's pretend that I can sit still, and we'll pretend like you care

Oh, it was true
I was looking at you

So under which sin is this one listed?
There's only one of ten to which I've been paying any attention
It's suggested by your confidence you're a little scared to fall
A black spot on your head that tells you you're never really getting old
And it's too late now for laughing at some cheap shot jokes
'Cause when we're laughing it's the kind the hurts more than I can show

Oh, it was true
I was looking at you
And all you thought I was thinking too
They say we'll meet a million faces, in our time
But only two or three will we ever come to know their eyes
Oh, how I was wishing you were one of mine

Just don't judge like me like a sane man
I'm many things before I'm that

And for all your nowhere dreams of shutting in some home
Safe and sound and decorated, inside your sticks and stones
It's like you've been quitting living and the drugs are old
But you're laughing more than me, I guess I was getting what I was owed
