Fury

lyrics

The things we live through
Are seldom as simple
As the stories we tell.
I'm quite aware of the darkness
in your eyes
And I know I wear
The face of your enemy
But I've wanted so long
For you to know, my friend
That you'll always be safe
With me.

She haunts at nightfall
With an eye full of tears
And a head full of empty spaces
Left by her pain
The ghosts of her yesterdays
Flank her
Through the city that's wronged her
Twisted her insides
Until she's broken
She lights a joint in the open
And drives until

It's day again
The sun also rises
Even for the nights when no one asks
For permission
And the creatures of the night
Hide from the eyes of God
They cower behind closed doors
Where they do things to her
I will cut them down
I would burn this world to the ground
To watch the flames in her eyes.

Just beneath her make-up
The scars are still livid
As the night they were made
She checks in the mirror
For chinks in this armor
A thousand times a day
Just beneath her skin
Twisting her insides
The life he left in her
She won't weep in the open
But if she did...

It's day again
The sun also rises
Even for the nights when no one asks
For permission
And the creatures of the night
Hide from the eyes of God
They cower behind closed doors
Where they do things to her
I will cut them down
I will burn this world to the ground
To watch the flames in her eyes.

Put your hand in mine
And we will face the prospect of day
Together
