A Pound of Flesh
Radical Face

My feet plow on from light to dawn
My empty belly and my bodyaches, they ain't hard to take
Next to the weight I carry in my chest
A pound of flesh could never tip the scale that I've made
I should have stayed, but I was never wise

I hear your voices in the wind that cuts the night
And I pray to whatever is listening things will be alright

Oh my boy, you're alive
Your heart's still beating
So don't you mind
Don't you mind
We all drift sometimes

I can still hear your feet as you ran from the house
But knowing you won't be back doesn't mean that I will stop waiting
You told me then: hold me down, or hold me up to the fire
But don't you dare hold me back

I see your faces in the clouds that scar the night
And I pray to whoever is listening things will be alright

Then today I wake up feeling easy
And find I'm on the more familiar roads
I've got a darkness wrapped inside me
But now it ain't so hard to let it go

So keep a candle burning in the window, I'm almost home
