American Scarecrows - S.W.A.N. Lyrics

Slip out of the shadows
Underneath my eyes
I've got a single barrel
And a big surprise
I'm gonna take it downtown
And bury it underground
Where I leave it
It'll stay
I'm doing 90 on the interstate
Thinking why the f*ck does everything that's good
Have to change
Roll your eyes then look at me
Tell me about the man that's hidden underneath
Like you can see though the layers
Hanging over history
If a single glance can break a heart
Why even bother trying to start
Stumble in the temple to be understood
Stained glass windows singing brotherhood
And I sang along a little longer than I should
As if the melody was holy law
Humming hallelujah with a broken jaw
I found a
Verse
Chorus
And a bridge I couldn't cross
If the constellations offer no advice
Who will really mind when I leave tonight
If living's easy
And living's good
Why am I burning up like firewood
I think that maybe there's a curse on me
Now I can't see
The reasons why the things we do
Compromising our beloved truth
There's war and sex and songs
And then there's you
Suicides without a name
And loving kisses in the pouring rain
