Run through with daylight

Run through with daylight
close my eyes
you said,
You were one
to stand while others run
to take their place in line
I've been wasting my time.

Run through with daylight
spare my ears:
You said,
we would write
a brand new history
with a road that runs right up the ass
of those that stand in our way.
and you said,
We would fly
our flag down the throat of time
and laugh as she drank us down.
Imagine my surprise!

Cause you were my rise
my heartbeat, my stone
Cause you were unlike me
unlikely, unknown.

Run through with daylight
break my heart
you said,
We would dance
spit on mother's grave
lock up those sacred myths
and toss away the key.

Run through with daylight
steal my car:
Take me to the woods
tie me to a tree
sail me down some slimy river
but don't toss away my dreams
cause you said:
You were one
to stand while others come
and take their place in line.
I've been wasting my time!

Cause you were my rise
my heartbeat, my stone
Cause you were unlike me
unlikely, unknown.
