lyrics

And it all comes around like this, in a moment like a cold kiss...

I taste the salt from your sweat.
It stings just like regret
And if I never wash your pillow case, pretend you never left
All my friends say "Let it drown, don't keep it in your head"
But my face is like an open book, a skin I haven't shed
She said "You look like you've seen a ghost"
Maybe I did.
I've been hanging on that rope of expectations

My father told me to get my gun
Mama told me to use these hands for love
For love

You better leave her alone, alright

So I got doubt and I got faith
I got real that I can't fake
And when I look into your patient eyes I know that I can't wait
Give me pain, give me pain
Give me love it's all the same
You can empty out the register
Snatch up all the goods that you can

My father told me to get my gun
Mama told me to use these hands for love, for love
Don't get caught in your selfish ways
Take the money and hide your dreams away
And if you find an unbroken one, boy leave her precious heart alone.

Now I know all the walls I built, I built them alone
Now I lay down this burden and let this heartache go

My father told me to get my gun
Mama told me to use these hands for love

My father told me to get my gun
Mama told me to use these hands for love, for love
"Don't get caught in your selfish ways
Take the money and hide your dreams away
And if you find an unbroken one, boy leave her precious heart alone."
