lyrics

my sister said “take care of him, he knows not what to do”
oh i need you, but i need you to need me too
and what the doctor gave to me, it couldn’t ease my mind
what i needed was escape from the hands of time

but i wont bleed, and i wont die
no, as for me im alive

i don’t need no evidence to prove the truth i find
you can leave me if i ever fall behind
and if i don’t come home again then trust ive found my way
oh ill make it, know ill make it, if not today

but i wont bleed, and i wont die
no, as for me im alive
and i wont plead, and i wont sigh
no, i believe im alive

i wont turn like my namesake
but ill walk upon the water just the same
so twist my cross like saint peters
oh, to die like my beloved id be ashamed

if we don’t come home again and everything has changed
know the names that you once gave us, they still remain
