Backbreaker Lyrics

von Ben Hamilton

I turned out the lights as I walked through the door
Feeling my way to you
I'll never forget the shape of the bed and the smell of fear and lust
I took out those chains and I tied you down
I prayed for release and now I know how

God she partakes, yes we all make mistakes
I shut you down and take your place
The cover, the sundial, the ravaged, the shadows
My helper, my harvest, a favour, a forest
Your radio, your father, my rage is greater
The courage, the fever, the back-breaking love for you
I called out your name through the window of the train, aching heart and walls of pains

Carry me home, I'm sinking like a stone, railway dreams and more
It didn't take long to see I was wrong with every disguise and every reply.

God she partakes, yes we all make mistakes
I shut you down and take your place
The cover, the sundial, the ravaged, the shadows
My helper, my harvest, a favour, a forest
Your radio, your father, my rage is greater
The courage, the fever, the back-breaking love for you

The cover, the sundial, the ravaged, the shadows
My helper, my harvest, a favour, a forest
Your radio, your father, my rage is greater
The courage, the fever, the back-breaking love for you
