lyrics

Bodies lay out bleeding about on the bunker hill
Some hearts releasing, some repeating, some hanging on still
We battled in our bodies and we fought it out in our mind
Till that lucid current came and took us in the nick of time

You started singing a song I was singing in my head
I wasn't even looking back when you started up to sing

If there ever was a true believer it was me I felt a fool
To believe a system of ideas that was real and true
You have done some bad things
I know I've done some bad things too
If you can forgive me, I will try and forgive you too

You started singing a song I was singing in my head
I was half asleep but it woke me up to hear you sing

We admit we don't understand the premise anymore
But we keep acting like we wrote the book, we know the score

Bodies lay out bleeding and stinking up on bunker hill
Some hearts conceded, some releasing, some hanging on still
We battled in our bodies and we fought it out in our mind
I always hoped we'd figure it out just in time

If there ever was a true believer it was me but this is true
What's real is real is the love that I have for you
