Sweet Metallic
Fear tastes like rust sucked inside your mouth A sweet metallic you can't spit out We just can't plan for this kind of thing But what were we expecting? We can't stay, can't leave, can't force the peace We can't make our gods do anything Men stand like tall white stones Lined in a thousand tidy rows See, we dwell in a house of cedar No fear here, no love either But there's a woman sitting there on a hard kitchen chair Scared to death of the knock on her doorway 'Don't let him be gone; I can't do this alone We've got three kids, got a family' What am I but a single girl? Armed with just five senses in a senseless world Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Everybody wants their answers But getting the question right's what really matters You know this used to be our home It wasn't much but it was our own And the waters kept on rising up And no one came to save us We heard 'Bye Bye Blackbird' From the edge of a stern That was pulling away We built ourselves on unity And a land of opportunity And shame, shame, shame Fear tastes like rust sucked inside your mouth A sweet metallic you can't spit out
