Paper Lions - Bodies In The Winter lyrics

rate me

We walk through graveyards with our boots on

Leap the stranger stones

Pulled on our skies by our retriever

You lose your breath and hit the snow

And we run by the vault where they keep all the cold bodies

To be buried

And I fall ‘cause he's up on my back and he's so heavy

To be carried

Watching our breath, it collects on the window pane

Words read backwards by you

Pushing through tunnels of snow pressing in on me

Pulling me out by my boots

Running away from the truth

The bodies in the winter are coming for you

Running away from the truth

The bodies in the winter are coming for you

There is a tower with a steeple if you wanna climb

If you're a coward we may be hurtful, trying your best not to cry

In the dark and the dust and what else, look around on our knees

The ladder’s raised

And we jump to the top where we hold by the skin of our teeth

Out of the haze

Then at the top chatter stops and we take it in

Towering giants from here

Climbing back down while the darkness surrounds us

One by one we disappear

Running away from the truth

The bodies in the winter are coming for you

Running away from the truth

The bodies in the winter are coming for you
