Juggernaut

A candid shot
A juggernaut
Crack a smile just to thicken the plot
Bet you wouldn't hang around with
Someone you didn't think was cool
But ice will melt
And blood will pool

A parking lot
A juggernaut
Tie my tongue in a half-Windsor knot
Every night you're groping in the dark
For a promise I won't make
It feels so warm
Can't stay awake

I know I failed you, but I...
I know I left you to die
I should have screamed at the sky
That this is all I need
That this is good enough

A heavy thought
A juggernaut
Camping out on our burial plot
So I wrote a song to celebrate
What I didn't see back then
Dead to rights
Born again
