The Archers Bows Have Broken

  • Who do you carry the torch for, my young man?
  • Do you believe in anything?
  • Do you carry it around just to burn things down?
  • Meet me tonight on the turnpike, my darling Cause we believe in everything
  • If we sweat all these debts then we're sure to drown
  • So we strap ourselves up to this engine now
  • With a God who we found laying under the backseat
  • What did you learn tonight?
  • You're shouting so loud, you barely joyous, broken thing
  • You're a voice that never sings, is what I say
  • You are freezing over hell
  • You are bringing on the end, you do so well
  • You can only blame yourself, it's what I say
  • Oh!
  • Order your daughters to ignore me, think that will sort me
  • And sweep me under the rug
  • You're beating with a book everyone
  • That book tells you to love
  • There is an ember in the heart of the kiln
  • And it's burning hot with love
  • Burning out my sins until there's nothing but dust
  • Rollin' me with care into your cigarette 'Cause the God I believe in never
  • What did you learn tonight?
  • You're shouting so loud, you barely joyous, broken thing
  • You're a voice that never sings, is what I say
  • You are freezing over hell
  • You are bringing on the end, you do so well
  • You can only blame yourself, it's what I say
  • Who do you carry the torch for, my young man?
  • Do you believe in anything?
  • Do you carry it around just to burn things to the ground?
  • What did you learn tonight?
  • You're shouting so loud, you barely joyous, broken thing
  • You're a voice that never sings, is what I say
  • You are freezing over hell
  • You are bringing on the end, you do so well
  • You can only blame yourself, it's what I say
  • Feels like
  • We could escape
  • And I don't mind
  • Throwing away
  • This filthy silver tongue
  • If you try
  • Running a maze
  • Of your lies
  • It's too hard to save
  • If you've thrown out everyone What did
  • you learn tonight?
  • You're shouting so loud
  • you barely joyous, broken thing
  • You're a voice that never sings
  • Is what I say
  • You are
  • freezing over hell
  • You are bringing on the end
  • you do so well
  • You can only blame yourself
  • It's what I say
