lyrics

I was young and always listening
Silent and observing truths
I’d sit in church with hands clasped tightly
Was I just a piece of you?

Higher than the hills I climbed
But I was sinking fast
In the evening of my sinning
I just needed rest

To lay my head on someone’s pillow
Let my mind envelope me
So I can hide from all you taught me
Wailing words

The Heart, The Head, The Mouth

Oh my god I know that I am
Wasted in the day...
And I guess it’s just a way of
Begging you to stay with me

Endless joys and fuck your sorrow
Fill me up with nothingness
Fill my head with awful echoes
Wailing words

The Heart, The Head, The Mouth

When I was young I always listened
Sitting in the wooden pews and
Watching how the windows glistened
Was I just a piece of you?

I was young and always listening
Silent as I saw the truth
Sitting there with hands clasped tightly
Was I just a piece of you?
Was I just a piece of you?
Was I just a piece of you?
