Breach

I've Been Delivered
4
I could break free from the
5
wood of a coffin
6
if I need
7
But nothin's hard as
8
Gettin' free from places
9
I've already been
10
I've been waste-deep
11
in the burnin' meadows
12
of my mind
13
In the engine
14
In cold December
15
shootin' fire from the hose
16
Now turn off your lights
17
'cause I'm not comin' home
18
'til I'm delivered for the first time
19
I was first-born to a parade
20
that follows in rows
21
down a narrow cold black river
22
faceless shadows
23
movin' slow
24
I would move swift when
25
the sounds of a trumpet would blow
26
I've been the puppet
27
I've been the strings
28
I know the vacant face it brings
29
Now the bells of curfew
30
They may ring before I'm through
31
But soon
32
I'll be delivered for the first time
33
You might keep clean
34
in the back of an angel motorcade
35
It doesn't matter who walks in
36
you know, the joke is still the same
37
You'll just wake up
38
like a disposable lover
39
decomposed
40
I've been gone
41
I've been remembered
42
I've been alive
43
I've been a ghost
44
So now, if downtown explodes
45
I'll still be on this road
46
'til I'm delivered for the first time
47
I have drawn blood
48
from the neckline
49
when vampires were in fashion
50
You know I'd even learn
51
to cut my throat
52
If I thought I could fit in
53
'Cause I, I once heard
54
that you gotta learn
55
how to blend in to this mess
56
Where nothin's hard
57
nothin's precious
58
and nothin's smooth or flawless
59
Now, no more amused
60
just screaming to be delivered
61
for the first time
62
Now I'm 10 miles in the deep
63
and mighty blue sea
64
Looking back, towards a long white beach
65
burnin' up into yellow flames
66
And I just wave back
67
like a little boy up on a pony
68
in a show
69
'cause I can't fix
70
something this complex
71
any more than I can build a rose
72
So just keep on letting go
73
'cause I must be close
74
to being delivered for the first time
75
Now I'd rather bleed out
76
a long stream from being lonely
77
and feel blessed
78
Well than drown, laying face down
79
in a puddle of respect
80
I was once lost
81
in the corridors of the arena
82
in blindfolds
83
I've been the bull
84
I've been the whip
85
I just pulled down the matador
86
So now, turn on your lights
87
'cause I'm comin' home
88
I've been delivered for the first time
