Archers

Who do you carry the torch for, my young man?
Do you believe in anything?
Do you carry it around just to burn things down?

Meet me tonight on the turnpike, my darling
Cause we believe in everything
If we sweat all these debts then we're sure to drown
So we'll strap ourselves up to this engine now
We look hard and we found our way into the backseat

What did you learn tonight?
Shouting so loud you barely (enjoy? join?) this broken thing
You're a voice that never sings, is what I say
You were freezing over hell
You were bringing on the end
You do so well
You can only blame yourself, its what I say

All that you've got is to ignore the things I was showing
And sweep me under the rug
And a beating with a book everyone with the book tells you to love

There is an ember in the heart of the kiln
And its burning hot with love
Burning out my sins until there's nothing but dust
Rollin' me with care into your cigarette
Cause the God I believe in never worked on a campaign trail

What did you learn tonight?
Shouting so loud you barely (enjoy? join?) this broken thing
You're a voice that never sings, is what I say
You were freezing over hell
You were bringing on the end
You do so well
You can only blame yourself, its what I say

Who do you carry the torch for, my young man?
Do you believe in anything?
Do you carry it around just to burn things to the ground?

What did you learn tonight?
Shouting so loud you barely (enjoy? join?) this broken thing
You're a voice that never sings, is what I say
You were freezing over hell
You were bringing on the end
You do so well
You can only blame yourself, its what I say

(Feels like we could escape with our minds
Throwing away the filthy, the silver sun
If you try running the maze of your lines
It's too hard to save if you've thrown out everyone)
