Javelin

On a sinking snowbank
You were lost in your pride
With the knots you untied
To great applause
It's a competition
Just a lowlife show
And we don't quite know
How to give it up and go
So we get so cold

Just please don't move me
I'd like to wake up where I fall
With wounds and all
Can we keep it all keep it all intact?

In a clearing courtroom
You admitted your guilt
For the towers you'd built
On sacred ground
It's a harmless sentence
But you'll make it hurt
Did it prove your worth?
If you wore it on your shirt
Like the fool you were

Just please don't move me
I'd like to wake up where I fall
With wounds and all
Can we keep it all keep it all intact?

Carry it all with you
The feeling that you slept right through
Every good example of getting what you gave in to

Calm down softly if you still can
Calm down softly if you still can
