went to bed drowning woke up in flames
summoning tears by naming names
shelter for one from the birds of prey
I will be safe if I give you away

in the tall grass and talking low
no exit plan and nowhere to go
you're stealth is at issue as panic appears
I use you as cover and there will be tears

so don't do no thinking out loud
don't write down anything now
now is for digging your trench
playing with fear
turning the wrench

don't do no thinking out loud
don't write down anything now
now is for digging your trench
playing with fear
I give you away

so don't do no thinking out loud
don't write down anything now
now is for digging your trench
playing with fear
turning the wrench ....I give you away
