Alter Der Ruine - Brute lyrics

With the work lights, I can't see 'em Down by the river I can hear them screaming "Oh, god's gold turned to ash, whoever saw that one comin?" There's been worse nights At least there's fireflies And this love of the worst kind Got it so bad I can't get to sleep at night So I fill up my pockets Full up with matches To burn off questions and push through the hours (chorus) Never never knew what to expect If it rains, it's swell Apex brute you've fallen down And hey, wear those crimes well And hey, gnash your teeth right You might not have shells to sell, but maybe some pearls to shine To test the design for imperfections Spat a few sparks at a new complexion Made it too hot to see (I) Want to join the two souls, drunk and fishing Smashed on the rocks to keep from drifting Because they have reasons I don't want to understand You were stronger than all oceans Able to hold back the seasons They never cried, never complained, just let you slip out of sight You didn't get it You didn't like it Someone stole you in the middle of the night You didn't break them, didn't clean them, just kept them quiet in the back of your mind
