Simon Joyner - Bring Down Goliath lyrics

There are hatchet homes for howling souls Where the gravel slides right off the roads And the sun don't shine it only scolds Electricity jumps from pole to pole You wake up there and your hearts a mess You've got to get what's eating you off your chest For even a ghost could use some rest From never-ending terror You've got skeletons spilling out of your drawers And your tongue's swollen from biting down so hard You say it aint true but you know that you are The one they're all spilling for So you run as if you could slice through the air Then you turn to see the past is still right there And she's running her fingers through the waves in your hair Whispering go ahead and try and escape me You've got to get wise to your size 'cause you're crawling Can't quite call them blue skies at all my friend And the sun will rise or set With your hope or regret So how come you whisper why not let out a scream Why open the road when you can float on a stream You've got to go down in the dirt if you want to come up clean What happened to your confidence and charisma I can hear your voice now floating in the sky Talking about truth and the lies that it implies Beauty is your umbrella and you always hold it high To shield you from the shower of dissension All the chaos-tongues and the rattling teeth Predict the future so digest your grief For even a ghost could stand to loose some sleep Over never-ending terror Now there's a statue in every square or park For teenagers to mutilate after dark Saying this is that of which we want no part With piss and spit and spray-paint You've got to aim high if you want to bring down Goliath Because it aint just a stone when it aint just one life And the sun will rise or set With your hope or regret
