La Dispute - The Castle Builders lyrics

Now speak of anger Forget all the fears you've kept About love and s** and d**h and faith Erased, or swinging sweet From around her neck And between her breasts Let every lonely body Finally break its fear of flesh And say, "How strange it must've been Back when we shook at the sight of sweat" And let our worries wander out Like water streaming from a spring And sing of all the things Our heads have failed to ruin There's so much they have failed to ruin yet Bright as lightning Loud as thunder We'll move all the hurt aside To let love sustain our pa**ions And move up and onward We are not our losses We are only the extent to which we love So build a home for your family And build a castle for your friends Now set their beds with sheets and blankets Keep them safe until the end I've felt the damage and burn from the fallout My love failed but theirs prevailed My friends, I'm only flesh and bone But I won't let you die alone So leave our hearts at the foot of the mountain Let our burdens be locked in the stone If you will help me roll it upward I won't let you die alone I see a beauty springing upward From the earth and from out our hearts For all the bad that seems to plague us I swear to you there's good No, oh, I won't let you die alone My love, I will not let you die alone They say that d**h is not a problem It's a promise I can only say for sure That when it makes your bed I'll kiss your head goodnight So speak of all the love we lost And what it cost us Left us beg our breath to stop But we kept on And we were strong And we, and we Stayed bright as lightning We sang loud as thunder We moved ever forward We are not our failures We are love
