Keep your old and wasted words My heart is breaking like you heard But the town has always turned These lies and made them all burn Keep your old and wasted words My heart is breaking like you heard But the town has always turned These lies and made them all burn Can you feel the leeches bite That boy that she took out tonight He's brave and walking sure Through all the spots you're working for When the light is out and words have gone Let me be the one to try it on
