marathon - single mothers lyrics

messy and stupid and dull and out of control
the intellectual grape vine gets pulled and then told
paperback riddled with the right pages dog-eared
my heart is full and my eyes are red but still clear
oh lord
come down here and give me a pat on the back
ya, i’m strong enough without anymore of your god-given strength
point me in the direction of those golden pearl gates
i’ve got rocks in my chest and garbage for brains
so i’m standing my ground and i won’t be persuaded
i’ve decided myself that i could use a change and
i’d be silly to think that i’ve been well behaved
but the messes i’ve made became your favorite stains

welcome me into your arms
i’ve sacrificed in all of your honor
with a toothless grin and some charm
let me lead you away from that slaughter

the writer’s world fame is
well…
much lesser known
but the antics will dictate how those readings will go
and the best seller shelf
it was never the goal
but the bills need to be paid and
the words need to be sold

welcome me into your arms
i’ve sacrificed in all of your honor
with a toothless grin and some charm
let me lead you away from that slaughter
let me lead you away from that slaughter
let me lead you away from that slaughter
we can find something better and darker
let me lead you away

what was dedicated to the soul
now belongs to the sell
we set the sails and let the
ship guide its self
and when it finally sinks we won’t blame ourselves
but take the names of the ones that actually dove into help

wishful thinking
then retreating
following blindly
into the fog
the nature of wrong
trailing like sh-t
right behind you
until you’re gone
