1000 Graves

[Verse 1] You could run a thousand roads And never end up nowhere Pierce through your hands a thousand holes And never know the cross you bear Maybe I was born inside a shadow I'm always starving for the light The only roads I seem to follow Are the ones leading to the night [Chorus] You can dig a thousand graves You're never gonna bury that ghost Floats up from the ground and a caution that hangs Hangs in your hair like a Jesus stone Crashing down too far from heaven Fell too short of a million things Try to put the pieces back together It's what I get for flying on broken wings [Verse 2] Sick of dying in these nights I wanna feel alive in the world Wanna straighten out all my crooked lines And then I'm gonna marry that girl Because I believe that love can save you When it comes in quiet and rises slow Takes the depths out of the darkness So you don't have to fall that far alone So you don't have to face it on your own
