Innocent Son

From Sun Giant2008

Lyrics

Innocent Son

You left me there Waiting at the bottom of the stairs With my eyes closed Holding my right hand in my left There's no time for hesitation now You come or go, or go Rust suddenly falling beside me On a ghost of a morning Riding in sorrow to the harbor Far behind, oh, me The bodies of my friends hanging alone, alone again Some twisted thorn tells me you saw me in the night with another Keep all my promises to break them, I am no, oh, no Innocent son You run rabbit run
