lyrics

If there’s one thing I know for sure
it’s when I came knocking on your door
I did so with a broken hand
and when I saw your pain inside
I guess I thought it looked just like mine
I don’t know why I thought you’d understand

Now come down from the throne I’ve built you
watch it fall while I guilt trip you
Don’t forget that you were the one who
traded in helping hand and
set fire to the promised land

No I know how sorry you are
but apologies won’t get you far
there’s simply somethings you can’t save
I could never hang you out to dry
never leave the room when I heard you cry
well I bought the shovel when your dog your grave

Now come down from the throne I’ve built you
watch it fall while I guilt trip you
Don’t forget that you were the one who
traded in helping hand and
set fire to the promised land

Oh oh oh
Woah oh oh
Oh oh oh
Woah oh oh
Oh oh oh
Woah oh oh
Oh oh oh oh

Now come down from the throne I’ve built you
watch it fall while I guilt trip you
Don’t forget that you were the one who
traded in helping hand and
set fire to the promised land

The band pulls inspiration from The Menzingers and Against Me! incorporating these inspirations while carefully crafting a sound of their own. ... more
