lyrics

Bless these palms
Holding your hand on Sunday nights
Bless this tongue
And the bitterness that followed the taste of sweeter times
And my head ponders pointless potential
Can I blame you for someone else's crimes?
Do you carry it around?
Or bury it in the ground?
I bury it in the ground

Bless these palms
Holding your hand on Sunday nights
Bless this touch
Your hands to yourself but your lips to your lies
And my head wanders widely asunder
And in between is all unrecognised
Where I carry it around
To bury it in the ground
I bury it in the ground

Bless these palms
Holding your hand on Sunday nights
Bless this love
Keep every beat, the afflictions are mine
And my head wonders, would you have wanted
Forgiveness for affections left me marred?
Do you carry it around?
Or bury it in the ground?
Let's bury it in the ground
