New American Standard

The night was quiet and still
Until you came in with a crash
We backed up what was left
And threw it away with the trash
It’s pretty, it is pretty in the parks
I salvaged the crucifix and the electrical parts
It’s never enough to save you
No matter how much you brave
You better blame yourself
Save yourself
It’s never enough to save you (save you)
Never enough to save up the hounds
You change yourself
Save yourself
23 paces to the back of the road
Walked a mile inside of my head when you lowered the bone
I’m looking, I’m looking for you
The light you left on is the hole in the door you came through
It’s never enough to save you
No matter how much you brave
You better blame yourself
Save yourself
It’s never enough to save you (save you)
Never enough to save up the hounds
You change yourself
Save yourself
Sometimes it keeps me awake at night in spite of myself
My new American standard alone on the shelf
I’ll try this, I’ll try anything
To want to the memory of all the things that I’ve seen
It’s never enough to save you
No matter how much you brave
You better blame yourself
Save yourself
It’s never enough to save you (save you)
Never enough to save up the hounds
You change yourself
Save yourself
