Trials Songtext

von Speak

Calling in sick
Static on the other line
He'll be just fine

By the time you're rich enough to pay
For every ritual you crave
You struggle just to stay awake
And I think I've earned a clearer head
But I'd settle for a face instead
Or lips that shred like yours do

And I look out on fire in the sky
To imagine it a healthy start
And I shook your hand
And pulled the card away

It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright

Standing in line for a trial by fire
Standing in line for a trial by fire by fire
Standing in line for a trial by fire
Standing in line for a trial by fire by fire

Skip to the end
You wander this enchanted rock
And burn your skin

By the time you're rich enough to pay
Pay for every ritual you've made
You struggle just to stay away

And for the moment I can't breathe
But that's just the way you'll always be
And the odyssey is above you

And I look out on fire
And a healthy star

Father I am young but I'm not afraid
No I'm not afraid of this
And father I am young but I'm not afraid
No I won't be afraid of this
But it's all that's left
To wonder why
Sunburned skin has to feel like
Sunburned skin has to feel like
Sunburned skin has to feel like
Sunburned skin has to feel like fire

Now father I am young but I'm not afraid
I'm young but I'm not afraid
