Ben Marwood - Heathens Lyrics

All of a sudden I am lost without a care

From books I've read, for hanging heads
For hearts in mouths and a sense of dread
And you might think it's gritty girl
But it does not compare to all I know,
The open road, the sights and sounds
When I'm far from home.

And all I know is that there is nowhere left to run
And in a second there'll be nowhere left to go
And I'll thank god only when I know
That there are heathens looking on
And I want them to know that they're wrong.

If you really want me to be strong again
Won't you call back the army who turned and fled?
Do you think I would trust this
With the fickle hand of justice at my throat.
And now all that I need is a hand to hold on to.

A lie, a look, a chance you took right before my eyes
And it's crystal clear after all these years
It's me that you love but it's me that you fear.
Sitting, simmering all this time.
And now in this makeshift noose I will take my truce
And you'll never know why, and that's what will kill you.

And all I know is that there is nowhere left to run
And in a second there'll be nowhere left to go
And I'll thank god only when I know
That there are heathens looking on
And I want them to know that they're wrong.

If you really want me to be strong again
Won't you call back the army who turned and fled?
Won't you show me a way I can raise the dead?
You can wipe the slate clean but you can't forget now.
