Scatter the Coals by Zach Vinson Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When did you love me?
When did it stop?
When did you mean it and when did you not?
Down here at the bottom
Two ways to explore
One way is up, the other’s out the door
[Chorus]
There’s a time to compromise, minimize, maintain control
And keep the course we’re on til we get old
But there’s a time for fixing hope on the last ember that glows
And a time to stomp out the fire and scatter the coals
[Verse 2]
There’s the way I don’t see you
The way I choose to ignore
The way you don’t seem to see me anymore
So call me on all of my lying
I’ll call you on yours
Let’s tear this down so we can build it up once more
[Chorus]
There’s a time to compromise, minimize, maintain control
And keep the course we’re on til we get old
But there’s a time for fixing hope on the last ember that glows
And a time to stomp out the fire and scatter the coals
[Bridge]
I could change my ways
We could skip this town
I could jump this cliff
If it would keep you around
[Chorus]
There’s a time to compromise, minimize, maintain control
And keep the course we’re on til we get old
But there’s a time for fixing hope on the last ember that glows
And a time to stomp out the fire and scatter the coals
When did you love me?
When did it stop?
When did you mean it and when did you not?
Down here at the bottom
Two ways to explore
One way is up, the other’s out the door
[Chorus]
There’s a time to compromise, minimize, maintain control
And keep the course we’re on til we get old
But there’s a time for fixing hope on the last ember that glows
And a time to stomp out the fire and scatter the coals
[Verse 2]
There’s the way I don’t see you
The way I choose to ignore
The way you don’t seem to see me anymore
So call me on all of my lying
I’ll call you on yours
Let’s tear this down so we can build it up once more
[Chorus]
There’s a time to compromise, minimize, maintain control
And keep the course we’re on til we get old
But there’s a time for fixing hope on the last ember that glows
And a time to stomp out the fire and scatter the coals
[Bridge]
I could change my ways
We could skip this town
I could jump this cliff
If it would keep you around
[Chorus]
There’s a time to compromise, minimize, maintain control
And keep the course we’re on til we get old
But there’s a time for fixing hope on the last ember that glows
And a time to stomp out the fire and scatter the coals
