[Verse 1]
Took me years to make my motives clear
And the days have not been kind
Once a steady gaze and charming smile
Has been buried in the lines, I find
[Pre-Chorus]
I walk in the noise, quiet employs
And darkness seems to know just where I am
[Chorus]
Mother, wash the devil from my hands
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
Mother, tell me, was it all a lie?
Show me where the angels die
[Verse 2]
There are words that never found my lips
There are words I'd soon forget
Thought the trick was never to look back
But it seems I've lost my grip, I slip
[Pre-Chorus]
The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
And somehow all the bullets bear my name
Took me years to make my motives clear
And the days have not been kind
Once a steady gaze and charming smile
Has been buried in the lines, I find
[Pre-Chorus]
I walk in the noise, quiet employs
And darkness seems to know just where I am
[Chorus]
Mother, wash the devil from my hands
Pray the Lord I have the strength to stand
Mother, tell me, was it all a lie?
Show me where the angels die
[Verse 2]
There are words that never found my lips
There are words I'd soon forget
Thought the trick was never to look back
But it seems I've lost my grip, I slip
[Pre-Chorus]
The faster we run now, the closer the gun now
And somehow all the bullets bear my name
