Leaving the Capitals by The Black Heart Rebellion Lyrics
Fear not the voices of men
Draw their words on your back
Carry them above all
To speak again, blue tongued
Not my hand will be taken
Neither will I rest on our sons
My teeth will stay here in the ground
Floating, like dimming lights
Caught in the dark
Caught in the past
This near black past
This near black heart
I am not what’s left behind
You are not what’s still to come
It hides in both of us
Willing to emerge
Draw their words on your back
Carry them above all
To speak again, blue tongued
Not my hand will be taken
Neither will I rest on our sons
My teeth will stay here in the ground
Floating, like dimming lights
Caught in the dark
Caught in the past
This near black past
This near black heart
I am not what’s left behind
You are not what’s still to come
It hides in both of us
Willing to emerge
