lyrics

“apples will sour at your sight,
branches fail the bough”
water and cold rice, left, right!
secrets left on the doormat

and they were all wounded
coming through the underbrush, i guess
and they were all singing
polishing their swords

strange new worlds bring with them strange new tongues
strange new hearts hooked up to strange new lungs, give her up, give her up
cause i can’t give it up anymore
give her up, give her up
give her up to the wind and the storm alone

watch as they come from the four
corners of the earth
pity my father on the shore
his whole life, buried at swordpoint

and they were all wounded
making camp where other ones were dead
and they were all singing
eating out their hearts

and strange new worlds bring with them strange new tongues
strange new hearts hooked up to strange new lungs, give me up, give me up
cause i can’t give it up anymore
give me up, give me up
give me up to the gods and the floor

strange new worlds bring with them strange new tongues
strange new hearts hooked up to strange new lungs, give it up, give it up
cause i can’t bear the thought anymore
give it up, give it up
give it up to your arms at the door
give it up, give it up
give it up, give it up, no more
give it up, give it up
give it up as the snow and the birds circle round, oh no
