Taken For A Bath Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And I wanted to see it
The crease and the curve of the skin
Four words got me in
Again and again again
But my friend
It was the light just behind us
I knew we never could keep up
The beds we make, the steps we take
Our graves we fill everyday

Roof top views of city buildings gathered
Where the sun sets on them steals the eye
Touch the streets with feet in hurried measure
Our discretion means we never lie

We never have to lie
We never have to lie

[Chorus]
You stole my eyes, so you I will take
You are the test of our grace
Threads become lines, we cross till they break
And they break from the seams to the bodies of men
(WE WILL LIE WE WILL TAKE
WITHERED AND CRUSHED THE FIRE AND THE FATE
YOU WILL DIE FOR OUR SAKE
WE WILL SEE THE WORLD IN THE BLOOD)

[Verse 2]
The illusion was ours
It was joy, it was rapture
I would have settled for capture
But a lost life found my bed
And all the wages of another
And the secret is no longer mine
Warm the body like so many others
Your discretion means we never lie

We never have to lie
We never have to lie

[Chorus]
You stole my eyes, so you I will take
You are the test of our grace
Threads become lines, we cross till they break
And they break from the seams to the bodies of men
(WE WILL LIE WE WILL TAKE
WITHERED AND CRUSHED THE FIRE AND THE FATE
YOU WILL DIE FOR OUR SAKE
WE WILL SEE THE WORLD IN THE BLOOD)

[Bridge]
TIME SAYS WE ARE MEANT TO SUFFER
SLINK BACK TO THE RETCH!
I never wanted them to wither or be crushed by the weight
(I called him home)
The choice was all his own
How could I have known
The simple answers that hold people to the fire and their fate
(I called him home)

Wait and see for yourself
It's in the blood
It's in the blood
The whole world is in the blood

I'd rather tell you how I ruled the world and never stopped
But this heart mine is shaking like a spinning top
And as it slows all my sins have caught the last of me
That reflection in the water tells a story true
But it's the last thing you want staring back at you
And wrinkled hands weak from plunder barely stir this away
There were years where our faces stayed in front us
There were moments we forgot what this really was
But the death of a memory
Is the death we carry

We're desperate
And dead set
We carry reasons in our chests
We reset and forget
The songs we sing are for the blessed
Don't take this personally, your quiet exit stole the show
The regrets are all said
Kings and kingdoms come and go
