Whitewash 02:46
A question long been festering Inside a burning head On fire like the streets you’re on With all those people dead Wonder do you sleep tonight When outside it gets dark As easy as the thread got pulled In our Glenfada Park A city lost her souls in the shadow of her wall When they tried to take her soul She just stood, she would not fall No, no Put me up against the wall Can you paint away the red? Like you covered over history Buried what you did But you’d never keep it buried Lies don’t dim the truth Sent a man in horsehair To steal a city’s youth A city lost her souls in the shadow of her wall When they tried to take her soul She just stood, she would not fall No, no A city lost her souls in the shadow of her wall When they tried to take her soul She just stood, she would not fall Said a city lost her souls in the shadow of her wall When you tried to take her soul She just stood, she would not fall No fall No fall No, no, no

It's just a sign I am as low as anybody can be I don’t think anyone here would even try to help me I open my mouth; it’s getting harder to speak I tear at my skin; why did they give it to me? I cut you into me I cut you into me I cut you into me I cut you into me And I’ll take anything that you have to clear my memory To just seal my eyes shut so I never again have to see. Won’t you numb my brain; it doesn’t allow me to sleep Drain my blood of all these impurities please I cut you into me I cut you into me I cut you into me now I cut you right into me All of your alternative bibles try to sell my misery They’re all offering cures for everything that don’t heal But how can I swim if the water’s already this deep? Won’t you listen to me, I’m here, I’m trying to speak I cut you into me I cut you into me I cut you into me now I cut you into me Look what you’ve done to me So take a look what you’ve done to me Look what you’ve done to me now Just take a look what you’ve done
