Crosses (And so We Dig) - Fort Hope

Just give up on the keys that we sold

Cause I’ve got a cut from the mould

We forgot the crosses you foretold

Now I may pick them up

Now I may pick them up

I know that the answers and tone

Just reeks of the cynics and clones

but if we tear the kings and queens from their thrones

This night may pick up

This night may pick up

So call off these lyrics and fight

The people will sing it tonight

Their hearts are the engines for their bones

Now I may pick them up

Now I may pick them

And this love

Your love is all I need

It’s the reason I exist

The only blood that I can bleed

They’ll drip dry our hopes

But we won’t be afraid

For as long as there’s good, there’s bad

and it’s hurtful and cruel

but the truth always finds a way

Just give up all your covers for cold

To piece through the puzzles untold

Swift shovel through the lies

that you have told

I may take them up

Now I may take them up

Smooths as the stones that we throw

Skim through the puddles way below

Slick shuffle through the lies as they are thrown

I may pick them up

Now I may pick them up

and this love

your love is all I need

It’s the reason I exist

The only blood that I can bleed

They’ll drip dry our hopes

but we won’t be afraid

for as long as there’s good, there’s bad

and it’s hurtful and cruel

but the truth always finds a way

woo

given the people we know

it’s hard to believe it’s so

why have the good ones got too old?

The good ones are not too old

For as long as there’s good

There’s bad

and it’s hurtful and cruel

but the truth always finds a way

for as long as there’s good, there’s bad,

and it’s hurtful and cruel

but the truth always finds a way

oh

and we won’t be afraid

for as long as there’s good

there’s bad

and it’s hurtful and cruel

but the truth always finds a way

for as long as there’s

good
