LYRICS:

I put the groceries down on the front lawn
and think maybe the children just want recognition
I wrote the fairytale on a midnight drive
Wanting to know if I’m more than alive
I torched the fields again
Killed an honest man
Now I understand Mother Nature
Watch me running head-first into the thorns
It’s like the lights are off but somebody’s home

Unwrap that tourniquet ‘round the sun
Turn those subtle reds into neon
You’ll see the difference when it’s done,
But I understand your hesitation

Come take a walk with me down billionaire’s row
Trying to keep our balance over zero
We’ll write the fairytale for the rest of our lives
Throwing the trash away one more time
Holding on to Love like a stone
Melting down today for tomorrow’s
Covenant of the heart
You know it’s turbulent from the start
And I understand it’s not your nature
But you need a friend
To take you home
You’ve got to begin again
To open castle gates and let me go inside
and taste the bitter tea that won’t let you hide
Then we can take away as much as we can steal
Break all the precious bones before the guards appear
Before the fantasy is cast into the fire
And strike the temple bell to resonate
The Covenant of the heart
You know what comes right after the dark,
But I understand your hesitation
