lyrics

Fast asleep on a bed of nails
Dreaming up the tallest tales
You can tell, you can sell
To the congregation

Words fell down and scattered fast
Promises were a thing of the past
Getting by, doing fine
Was everything that mattered, oh oh

Chorus
Had you been properly wrecked by John
Had you jumped in eyes closed and headlong 

You might have seen sights that the bible could have never shown you 
You might have seen other worlds other than the one you knew
Had you been properly wrecked by John

You took your crosses and crutches and took your vows 

But you left your baby in the lost and found
And you’re still no better than when you started


`cause you know you left so much undone
Like the holes in the walls where your pictures hung 

All the places the faces are just souvenirs

Chorus

I remember someone I used to like
Not a lot, but enough to remember
Someone sweet and kind
Someone willing to try
To make a go with someone sweet and kind
who was willing to try
