Flyleaf - Break Your Knees lyrics

rate me

<BR>

Breaks your knees and leaves you so<br>

The sun can burn you up and wear you out<br>

It's an angry summer<br>

<br>

There's no room to smile<br>

When the face you make just before you cry<br>

Looks so young like a child<br>

<br>

The sun will set on this my dear<br>

Your labors aren't in vain<br>

You're blistered and you're burned from it<br>

Your wounds are gonna heal<br>

<br>

Life on earth will end for all conceived<br>

And prove to be only a breath,<br>

A mist, a womb for what's to come<br>

How soon forever arrives<br>

<br>

The sun will set on this my dear<br>

Your labors aren't in vain<br>

You're blistered and you're burned from it<br>

Your wounds are gonna heal<br>

<br>

Steadfast my love<br>

The end is near<br>

Just keep your eyes ahead<br>

Grab hold of me<br>

I'll help you there<br>

You're never on your own<br>

You're never all alone<br>

<br>

Life on earth will end for all conceived<br>

And prove to be only a breath,<br>

A mist, a womb for what's to come<br>

How soon forever arrives<br>

<br>

Breaks your knees and leaves you so<br>

The sun can burn you up and wear you out<br>

It's an angry summer<br>

<br>

Don't look at the past again<br>

The first and last has made everything new<br>

And you are too<br>

So lift your head<br>

And let your story be told<br>

Life on earth will end for all conceived<br>

And prove to be only a breath,<br>

A mist, a womb for what's to come<br>

How soon forever arrives<br>

<br>

The sun will set on this my dear<br>

Your labors aren't in vain<br>

You're blistered and you're burned from it<br>

Your wounds are gonna heal (forever arrives)<br>

<br>

The sun will set on this my dear<br>

Your labors aren't in vain<br>

<br>

Life on earth will end for all conceived<br>

And prove to be only a breath,<br>

A mist, a womb for what's to come<br>

How soon forever arrives<br>

<BR><BR>
