Counting Shadows 歌词

Bootprints in the ash Name tags in the dirt I stitch my shaky hands Through photographs that hurt Dog tags on a nail Clink like teeth at night Every prayer I ever said Came back in black and white I see the shadows of death on the wall Every step I take They follow me (follow me) Follow me Faces I carried through smoke and the fall Sleeping in my ribs They hollow me (hollow me) Hollow me Shadows of death Calling my breath And I don't know who I am at all Coffee gone cold TV turned off I flinch at every car Like it might go off Streetlights paint ghosts On my bedroom door I count them like a roll call Of the ones not here anymore I see the shadows of death on the wall Every step I take They follow me (follow me) Follow me Faces I carried through smoke and the fall Sleeping in my ribs They hollow me (hollow me) Hollow me Shadows of death Calling my breath And I don't know who I am at all If I walk into the dark Do they fade? If I finally speak their names Are they saved? Tell me Is this guilt or is it grace? When I feel their hands Reaching through my chest plate (hey!) I see the shadows of death on the wall Every step I take They follow me (follow me) Follow me Brothers I carried through smoke and the fall Living in my veins They swallow me (swallow me) Swallow me Shadows of death Under my breath Till I say their names and learn to stand tall
