Archers

Who do you carry the torch for, my young man?

Do you believe in anything?

Do you carry it around just to burn things down?

Meet me tonight on the turnpike, my darling

'Cause we believe in everything

If we sweat all these debts then we're sure to drown

So we strap ourselves up to this engine now

With a God who we found laying under the backseat

What did you learn tonight?

You're shouting so loud, you barely joyous, broken thing

You're a voice that never sings, is what I say

You are freezing over hell

You are bringing on the end, you do so well

You can only blame yourself, it's what I say

Oh!

Order your daughters to ignore me, think that will sort me

And sweep me under the rug

You're beating with a book everyone

That book tells you to love

There is an ember in the heart of the kiln

And it's burning hot with love

Burning out my sins until there's nothing but dust

Rollin' me with care into your cigarette

'Cause the God I believe in never worked on a campaign trail

What did you learn tonight?

You're shouting so loud, you barely joyous, broken thing

You're a voice that never sings, is what I say

You are freezing over hell

You are bringing on the end, you do so well

You can only blame yourself, it's what I say

Who do you carry the torch for, my young man?

Do you believe in anything?

Do you carry it around just to burn things to the ground?

What did you learn tonight?

You're shouting so loud, you barely joyous, broken thing

You're a voice that never sings, is what I say

You are freezing over hell

You are bringing on the end, you do so well

You can only blame yourself, it's what I say

Feels like

We could escape

And I don't mind

Throwing away

This filthy silver tongue

If you try

Running a maze of your lies

It's too hard to save

If you've thrown out everyone
