Scrape Wisdom Songtext
von Hot Cross

This is what you owe the dead
Again and again
This is what you owe the dead
Again and again
Again and again
This is what you owe the dead
Again and again
Again and again
This is what you owe the dead
Again and again

Death′s instructions strangled
Veins pour flesh from head
Family ties are mangled
Mother falling out of debt


This is what I know
Blue faced efforts
That fail to reveal the color of her shadow
My sense caught
Caught in a
My sense, my sense
My sense caught in a stone's throw
With cleaner slates that keep track of all the baggage I tow
All the baggage I, I tow

Scraped wisdom of the tomb
Early morning scars from masks shed
In favor of never or is it forever

Death′s instructions strangled
Veins pour flesh from head
Family ties are mangled
Mother falling out of debt

This is what I know
This is what I know

This is what you owe the dead
Again and again
This is what you owe the dead
Again and again
Again and again


This, this is what I know
Blue faced efforts
That fail to reveal the color of her shadow
My sense caught in a stone's throw
With cleaner slates that keep track of all the baggage I tow
All the baggage I, I tow

This is what you owe the dead
This is what, what you owe

Scraped wisdom of the tomb
Early morning scars from masks shed
In favor of never
In favor of never
In favor of never or is it forever
Or is it forever

A morning lost to secrets I'll never erase
Secrets I′ll never erase
