Church of the West Lyrics by Dr. Ghost

Criminalized Survival

0

I was living upside down, turned around and floating
Hiding in another drink, no sign of it slowing down
Under redwood I told you
That you are me and I do
Everything pushing you, pulling me, cuts in two
From nothing to know you, to be me, fighting through
We will bleed, we will need, when we fall
Pick me up, on your feet, stand tall
I was sitting upside down, turned around not watching
The fire that was chasing me, that chaos that was blocking you
Under redwood I told you
That you are me and I do
Everything pushing you, pulling me, cuts in two
From nothing to know you, to be me, fighting through
We will bleed, we will need, when we fall
Pick me up, on your feet, stand tall
To the end of it all, the first light to the last call
When all time strips away, side by side we decay
This nothing, big empty
Holding me down, choking the life from me
I looked for an escape, avoid any more pain
Not worth the price I paid, but it's all erased
The last light in the sky
The last night when I die
The end the beginning, nothing is finite
When it darkens tonight
When the light is too bright
The end the beginning, nothing is finite
Everything was upside down, and slowly turning on me
A vapid life, a shallow grave, the weight of hollow trappings
Under redwood I told you
That you are me and I do
Everything pushing you, pulling me, cuts in two
From nothing to know you, to be me, fighting through
We will bleed, we will need, when we fall
Pick me up, on your feet, stand tall
You are the light that burns the night
