You took your hits
Wear the bruises on the soles of your feet
Well, who's to say if they're deserved?
You're turning reckless now
I hear you saying through your teeth
That you'll take them down first
I saw you flinch
When the doctors got their claws in you
I saw your smile start to crack
It's not so funny when you're sunk
And there ain't nothing you can do
When your options are all dead ends
When there's no way out
I'll let you build your home in me
Until the clock's run down
When your luck's run out
Call me and I will come and fix you
Get your feet on the ground
When there's no way out
Call me and I will come and bury you
All safe and sound
And all this time
You've been drifting out with the tide, my friend
But you can have what's mine
If it helps you stay afloat
If I close my eyes
It's 'cause I can't watch you drown anymore, my friend
But I'll tell you lies
If it helps you sleep at night
The more we fight
The more we don't get right, my friend
Yeah, the more we fight
The more we don't get right
I heard they broke you
That you gave in
That you dropped
And the fight had left you
But don't you worry
Makes no difference
From the start
Your options were all dead ends
When there's no way out
I'll let you build your home in me
Until the clock's run down
When your luck's run out
Call me and I will come and fix you
Get your feet on the ground
When there's no way out
Call me and I will come and bury you
All safe and sound
