open wide I'm ready for the battle
our fight this burning bed
see the bones that bullets have shattered
and I feel every dreop of blood you've bled
lay down these promises broken
take me into your hurricane
while violent clouds roll over
I'll hold your hand till the colors fade
and I'll be here till your dying day
sing loud from the rooftops
come dance on the river's edge
carry me on the mountains to the end of love
close the gate to the city
hear the drums on the hillside
carry me over mountains to the end of love
standin' in a field of voices
find shelter from the blame
even if you think it's all over
I'll be here till the colors fade
I'll be here till your dying day
sing loud from the rooftops
come dance on the river's edge
carry me on the mountains to the end of love
close the gate to the city
hear the drums on the hillside
carry me over mountains to the end of love
put down the knife you're wielding
let high stone walls fall away
with gentle time you'll be amending
and I'll be here till the colors fade
and I'll be here till your dying day
sing loud from the rooftops
come dance on the river's edge
carry me on the mountains to the end of love
close the gate to the city
hear the drums on the hillside
carry me over mountains to the end of love
sing loud
burn it down
call the river as we fall apart
sing loud
burn it down
call the river as we fall apart
