All the Old Heroes

[00:07:13] Come yonder old stranger the tooth and the dagger

[00:07:13] You stagger and then you are saved

[00:07:13] Grow fonder the manger in truth and in danger

[00:07:13] Of forgetting mistakes that you've made

[00:07:13] Eyes like mine blinking and endlessly drinking

[00:07:13] Letting the warlords inside

[00:07:13] Fall in like mice into fires of ice

[00:07:13] In death we find places to hide

[00:07:13] All the old heroes are like children to me now

[00:07:13] As I come to burn your shame away

[00:07:13] Without knowing exactly how

[00:07:13] All the old heroes young babies without mothers

[00:07:13] Left to die on apocalyptic(/apocalypse) streets

[00:07:13] And where are these words from who spoke them before

[00:07:13] Coming down like flashes of heat

[00:07:13] I'm never frightened(/afraid) for death I still welcome

[00:07:13] And death I have seen you before

[00:07:13] I gave you my keys, my windows, my creeds

[00:07:13] But soon I will give you much more

[00:07:13] I tried once to hide but misery's pride

[00:07:13] Told me you can't hide no more

[00:07:13] So the next time you came without any shame

[00:07:13] I made sure to open my door

[00:07:13] Come back in my fair-weather friend

[00:07:13] The light that you cannot control

[00:07:13] Is yours to condemn to love and take in

[00:07:13] Give mercy to each fallen soul

[00:07:13] All the old heroes are like children to me now

[00:07:13] As I come to burn your shame away

[00:07:13] Without knowing exactly how

[00:07:13] Love is a fix a suicide wrist

[00:07:13] Blood with an unending flow

[00:07:13] To purify lands soak in the sands

[00:07:13] Of places that we'll never go

[00:07:13] Jesus come calling we'll be here and falling

[00:07:13] Praying for your hand to show

[00:07:13] Catch us in mercy drink us when thirsty

[00:07:13] Each of us falling like snow

[00:07:13] All the old heroes are like children to me now

[00:07:13] As I come to burn your shame away

[00:07:13] Without knowing exactly how

[00:07:13] Each one a cathedral the last junkie needle

[00:07:13] Stained glass from blood that is old

[00:07:13] And in that cathedral with (the) angels of nighttime

[00:07:13] Pained/Paned in the window so cold

[00:07:13] They see through your victim your painful musicians

[00:07:13] Playing the saddest of songs

[00:07:13] Nobody singing just a ghost without dreaming

[00:07:13] A voice that could right all the wrongs

[00:07:13] All the old heroes are like children to me now

[00:07:13] As I come to burn your shame away

[00:07:13] Without knowing exactly how

[00:07:13] Goodbye sweet diamond the sky in the north wind

[00:07:13] Is falling on lepers and snakes

[00:07:13] Hello young mercy both blessed and thirsty

[00:07:13] For solutions to so many mistakes

[00:07:13] Without your lover your tired wonder

[00:07:13] The south rain threatens to pour

[00:07:13] On (skulls?) like crashing in sunlight basking

[00:07:13] Ignoring the strongest of calls

[00:07:13] You cannot save them without their consent

[00:07:13] Your voice of mercy to them I have sent

[00:07:13] You spoke through me you a good man

[00:07:13] Grew up to listen and give me your hand

[00:07:13] Your voice of mercy so strong and so true

[00:07:13] It comes out in cascades without residue

[00:07:13] Of darkness or lies in(/or) doubt or untrue/untruth

[00:07:13] It's pure like the wind the rain and the youth

[00:07:13] All the old heroes are like children to you now

[00:07:13] As you come to burn their shame away

[00:07:13] Without knowing exactly how

[00:07:13] All the old heroes are like children to you now

[00:07:13] As you come to burn their shame away

[00:07:13] Without knowing exactly how
