lyrics

We are only dancing
You're my only friend
Til Jesus walks again
Fear is holding me here
Whatever you heard
It's colder in the Earth
The fire is freezing

Begone, sweet dreams
I have a thirst - sing it
We know there's blood in the water
But time keeps flying

Dust has no allegiance
Please do not disturb
The flowers or the curb
My demons sleep inside it
Pleasing who they serve
But I am of the Earth
In time unbeaten

Good boy goes, trying out a new pose
He didn't last long and he was in his best clothes
These days are burning like crazy
Keep it up, keep me down, lock me up in this town
Passing seasons, running out of reasons
Now you bring a miracle? Shell them out until we're even
Move slow, stop, go
Whoa, no you don't - I can see you

Begone, sweet dreams
I have a thirst - sing it
We know there's blood in the water
But we keep sipping
