T. Burke - Unpaid Debts

Standing on the edge
Of seventeen with all your friends
When the never resting tide
Pulled you out into the fight
It wasn't the rocket glare
Machine gun fire in hostile air
The cigarettes tucked in your coat
Stole the breath right out your throat
And I know the same blood's running through my veins
And ain't it a shame how some things never change
We push through the pain but it finds another way
I guess in the end we've all got debts we'll never pay
Staring through the trees
At twenty-one, weak in the knees
When a sudden burst of light
Broke your bones and saved your life
It wasn't the blinding fear
The phantom echoes in your ears
The stowaway you brought with you
Wore you down and no one knew
And I know the same blood's running through my veins
And ain't it a shame how some things never change
We push through the pain but it finds another way
I guess in the end we've all got debts we'll never
And I know the same blood's running through my veins
And ain't it a shame how some things never change
We push through the pain but it finds another way
I guess in the end we've all got debts we'll never
I guess in the end we've all got debts we'll never
