Steve Evetts - Cardinals lyrics

[Verse 1] Cardinal crashed into my window, I think he might die I'll plan him a funeral, I'll read his last rites Cause I know what he saw in that reflection of light On the gla** was a better life [Verse 2] Staring at a hole in your chest that's been dug there for decades American broken promises Caught between the lies you've been fed And a war with your bloodstream I should have been there when you needed a friend I was off on my own again Selfish and stupid [Chorus] So if you call me back or let me in I swear I'll never let you down again I know the devil you've been fighting with I swear I'll never let you down again [Verse 3] I had that nightmare again You're seven and helpless, angry as hell And you balled up your fists but I laughed at your swings And I beat you half-conscious I know that I failed you, woke up in a sweat I want those years back [Chorus] So if you call me back or let me in I swear I'll never let you down again I know the devil you've been fighting with I swear I'll never let you down again [Bridge] (x2) We're no saviors if we can't save our brothers [Chorus] So if you call me back or let me in I swear I'll never let you down again I know the devil you've been fighting with I swear I'll never let you down again
