Coral Bones - July

They want to die before they're old
But I have so much to see
I fear that I've seen my charts unfold
Just to drown in complacency
And I wasn't born for this
The soles of my shoes are torn for this
The road carries on but I'm still here
Knots on my wrists for my sick fear
We show the earth the strangest love
The mountains and riversides
We'll burn when she's finally had enough
For that truth my eyes are wide
And we weren't born for this
The soles of our shoes are torn for this
Time carries on but we'll be here
Left in the dirt for our sick fear
Climbed to my roof one slow July
And waited for tears to come
Colors and fire rose up and died
Living to please someone
And I'll carry on for this
Hold melodies tightly in my fist
And when my sickness cages me
I pray they will set me free
