Hymn for Mr Tom - Radio Edit

Well the open answers make you beg belief
Let it hold the question let it save your seat
This mind of mine finds it hard to sleep
Always on the rewind

Well I'm the rabbit in the iron sights
Took me out past the power lines
Took me off for my many crimes
Against the people

Let her watch you as she sees you get away
Drown all your sadness in the worst kind of way
And don't come out to play

She said what did you see when you closed your eyes for the final time
I saw a man made of stars and planets
Stood in an archway or see through banners
Where he showed me all the damage that I had done
All of the tear drops of my son's
Empty bottles and the barrel of the gun
When the spark it blew out

Well I think of all times I took you to the sea
And tell you you were pretty but you wouldn't believe
I'd point towards the waves crashing into the beach
And I ask you

Had you even seen a imperfect cloud
Ever seen an ugly wave that didn't make the right sound
Were all the same thing only some us are drowned
In the haze light

Don't let it get just make sure you get away
And leave it behind before it reeks up your day
Before it's here to stay

She said what did you see when you closed your eyes for the final time
I saw a man made of stars and planets
Stood in an archway or see through banners
Where he showed me all the damage that I had done
All of the tear drops of my son's
Empty bottles and the barrel of the gun
When the spark it blew out

She said what did you see when you closed your eyes for the final time
I saw a man made of stars and planets
Stood in an archway or see through banners
Where he showed me all the damage that I had done
All of the tear drops of my son's
Empty bottles and the barrel of the gun
Before the spark it blew out

Before the spark it blew out
Before the spark it blew out
