The Buried Fault

Текст песни

[Verse 1] You carved your name in the rusted gate Then called it shelter, called it fate I watched the hinges swallow rain And learned to make a home of strain [Pre-Chorus] I kept the key beneath my tongue Now every locked door comes undone [Chorus] I am the weight beneath your feet The buried fault that splits the street You built your throne on borrowed ground Now hear the whole foundation sound [Verse 2] Your paper crown dissolved in heat Your careful lies came back in sheets I took the map you drew for me And tore the borders from the seams [Pre-Chorus] I kept the key beneath my tongue Now every locked door comes undone [Chorus] I am the weight beneath your feet The buried fault that splits the street You built your throne on borrowed ground Now hear the whole foundation sound [Bridge] No hand can hold the buried stone No name can make the damage whole I rise through every crack you made And leave your little kingdom laid [Breakdown] Down to the root Down to the bone You don't own what you broke [Final Chorus] I am the weight beneath your feet The buried fault that splits the street You built your throne on borrowed ground Now hear the whole foundation sound [Outro] The gate swings wide The key is gone
