Tired Pony - Pieces lyrics

rate me

I see her from the deep garden

And her hair is soaking wet

The bedroom light is flickering

To the pounding of your heart

You close your eyes and count to ten

When they open you're asleep"

Slow your breathing down to meet

All the shadows and the ghosts

Pieces of your heart collapse

To the sound of beating drums

You can't contain it anymore so just let the madness come

There's something in the way she moves that just terrorises you

You try to piece confusing clues together in your head

I see you there, shining like a beacon

(Fabric tears) Fabric tears

My love burns for you

The enemy is in there with you right now

(Car engine) Car engine, still too hot to touch.

You're married to her in your mind

And she loves you like a son

Yearning for a place in time

And a hope to call your own

Smashed into you hard enough

That you will not soon forget

He wants her like a sword and sheild

And he wants her here and now

I see you there

You are my only empire

(Call you name) I call your name but it becomes the wind

(A sudden lurge) A sudden lurge, a quickening of footfalls

(Bible held) A Bible held above me like an axe.
