Lyrics Joseph Arthur

Joseph Arthur

No Surrender Comes For Free

Your pupils are almost always pinned

Fly like you will the shape of the wind

Skating on ice at once thinning and thinned

You wait to fall thru to do it again

Your eyes are like pins stabbing my neck

Vampire needs on trains that you wreck

Your heart is a ghost or barely a speck

Play every game and load every deck

Your pupils so small go high to the end

Internal worlds fall and dreams just descend

Disguised all the time an enemy's friend

Relationships die and never will mend

Under your skull clouds of pure bliss

As you give in to the vampire kiss

A cut in your heart appears on yer wrist

Giving to time the denial of this

No surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

Pills just dissolve in bellys of dust

And float to your eyes emotion you trust

Like Bob Dylan said life is sad and a bust

But to get by you face what you must

Rob from always on the run is so bad and copy paste is a sin

All your lies can't save you now

A selfish world that broke somehow

Over the moon you jump like a cow

As leaches of thoughts squirm under your brow

Tricks licks kicks and dicks

All get bought and sold and mix

Words break bones like stones and sticks

As you run out of veins to fix

Shattered eyes still smiles wide

Under clouds you love to hide

You'd rather die than swallow pride

As walls build up and up inside

But no surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

That's right

A cloudy demon with angel breath

Floating forward backward death

Nothing to gain and nothing left

Just the evidence of theft

From yourself you stole what's true

If it could work I'd do it too

Follow the lonely line of you

Until there's no way to come back through

Bleeding eyes and holy toes

Blissful fingers where no one goes

The things you've done no one knows

But what you hide still always shows

Touching on epiphany

But no surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

Follow you or follow me

Follow you or follow me

No surrender comes for free

If they could see the things you see

No surrender comes for free

If they could see the things you see

No surrender comes for free

Follow you or follow me

No surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

No surrender comes for free

That's right
