Overthrow Me

One steps
Over the other
One fight
Tied to another
An instance of loss
One heart
Stolen and aflutter
Into
The darkness of another
It's all we have known

And when you leave
What's left of me
Can learn to breathe again
We're lost in this sea
Of broken dreams
That weren't our own again
So overthrow me

One cut
Opened by the never
One cut
Opened by the hand
We write words in our blood

This shapes wrong
Made by the shiver
This line here
Made by the call
This portrait of us

And when you know
All that you've been
Won't make us whole again
Won't fix these dreams
Or unhear these screams
We woke this storm again
So overthrow me

And here we are
So tenderly
We learn each other's weakness
When we're smashing all the pieces
As the hammer falls and falls repeatedly
Here we are
Gods in the machines
Riding out the plagues and waiting for the grief
Forced to hide amongst the leaves
And here we are
So overthrow me

Last chance
Over by the middle
Last dance
Never been this still
It's so cold again

Run now
Chase for a living
It's gold now
Waiting for it come
You got old somehow

And when you've lost
This awful need
You'll come to hold again
These lightning seeds
That you must hide
In this narrow world again
That's overthrown me

And here we are
So tenderly
We learn each other's weakness
When we're smashing all the pieces
As the hammer falls and falls repeatedly
Here we are
Gods in the machines
Riding out the plagues and waiting for the grief
Forced to hide amongst the leaves
And here we are
So overthrow me

So overthrow me
Overthrow me
