Break Your Knees Songtext / Lyric

Breaks your knees and leaves you so
The sun can burn you up
and wear you out
Its an angry summer Theres no room to smile
When the face you make
just before you cry looks so young
like a child The sun will set on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain
Youre blistered and youre burned from it
Your wounds are gonna heal

Life on earth will end for all concieved
and prove to be only a breath,
a mist, a womb for whats to come
how soon forever arrives

The sun will set
on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain
Youre blistered and youre burned from it
Your wounds are gonna heal

Steadfast my love
the end is near
Just keep your eyes ahead
Grab hold of me
Ill help you there
Youre never on your own
Youre never all alone

Life on earth will end for all concieved
and prove to be only a breath
a mist, a womb for whats to come
How soon forever arrives

Breaks your knees and leaves you so
the sun can burn you up
and wear you out
Its an angry summer

Dont look at the past again
The first and last has made everything new
and you are too
so lift your hands
and let your story be told

Life on earth will end for all concieved
and prove to be only a breath
a mist, a womb for whats to come
How soon forever arrives

The sun will set
on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain (forever arrives)
Youre blistered and youre burned from it
Your wounds are gonna heal (forever arives)

The sun will set
on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain

The sun will set
on this, my dear
Your labors arent in vain
(Life on earth will end for all concieved
and prove to be only a breath
a mist, a womb for whats to come)
How soon forever arrives
