The Cut Lyrics by Gateway District

Old Wild Hearts

2012

Like children, like lovers, I promised
Now these years have made me dishonest
We married each other
Got lost in third ring suburbs
And buried the big eyes
Of children that we once were
Under trashy hopes of model homes
Designer clothes and gender roles
I'm losing little pieces every time
To pay for these new promises
In my promised kind of life
I still know that pay phone
I'll call you, you let it ring twice
It's almost time to go
Kiss me once and don't forget
Ring just twice
I can wait for you, but not for long
The bridge has burned and I should be gone
Head north along the cut til my car quits
Let's get out, let's fall off, let's let go of this
They can't break you if you're broken
They can't take you down if you stay low
They can't block the way you're going
If you just don't go
