  • Lyrics
     
    i'd walk the water to get back to you
  • and where i was complete
    we found you scattered by the highway side too
    soon to be released
  • gathered the pieces up and clean the place
    where you were undone
    and washed the wreckage out unfinished all the
  • thoughts that we'd begun
    i came to burn the sky and tear away
    the beauty that it sows
  • if i could rape the day and find the things i thought
    i'd always known
    leave it alone again tonight
  • i laid your arms out long untwisted there
    and shaped what i could find
    unmade the most of it then left the rest
  • the parts unrecognized
    my reconstruction was the only way
    for one last look at you
  • i lost the sense of it at the absolution
    that we never knew
    leave it alone again tonight
  • leave it alone again tonight
    and it takes me back from this place here
    it takes me back from this place here
  • i came to burn the sky and take away
    the beauty that it sows
    i came to rape the day and find the things
  • i thought i'd always known
    leave it alone again tonight
    and it takes me back from this place here
  • from this place here it takes me over
    and it might be lost in this place here
    from this place here it takes me on
  • leave it alone again tonight
  • PLAY TOO ..
