Ryan Lott - Ransom lyrics

What wish will ransom me Unbury violently All innocents, all innocents? Lanterns illumine me Burning the memory Rise innocent, rise innocent What rage will usher me Swallow the enemy Buy innocence, buy innocence Lanterns illumine me Incense from memory Rise innocent, rise innocent Or is the long war won? The army in me gone Overrun? To heal this violent son A breath from one last lung Overcomes Pull out the song from every open mouth at once The lantern tongues! And I will hear the song in every heart at once The roaring drums The harlot and the priest, the prophet and the thief Up from their knees In all their open mouths I see the lantern tongues Light up at once What wish will ransom me Unbury violently All innocents, all innocents? Lanterns illumine me Burning the memory Rise innocent, rise innocent What rage will usher me Swallow the enemy Buy innocence, buy innocence? Lanterns illumine me Incense from memory Rise innocent, rise innocent
