killing your darlings ain't easy
i ain't saying it is
holding the knife above Isaac,
he's just a kid
son, you will be many
look at the stars above
tell me how many you're thinking of
chorus
the ships we took far are weeping at the harbor
can you lend us a shoulder?
jacob please take me up your secret ladder
i just need a reminder
the candlelight is fading
i'm squinting at the page
trying to find the words to keep faith
so paint my eyes with saliva if that's what it takes
the heart is such a heartbreaker when it breaks
