Lyrics:
(verse 1)
I'm teething on the answers you're saving
How are you going to make me understand
I'm dreaming while you're stealing babies
How are you going to make me sleep again
(chorus)
How should I say "Im so sorry"
How should I pray, to know that we're alive
(slow part)
Eve stands alone
By the knock on the door
By the thin in her bones
shes courageous and loving
Exhausted and cold
shes not ready to go
But the ghost on the phone
helps her safely into her dream
(verse 2)
You're leaving pieces of family
How are you going to help them understand
Im screaming while you're stealing babies
Why do you want to knock us down again
(chorus)
How should I say "Im so sorry"
How should we pray, to make us feel alive
