Torches - The Oh Hellos
Written by：Maggie Heath/Tyler Heath
I got a venom like a snake running out of my mouth
Running out of my mouth running out of my mouth
It's got you burning at the stake
Innocent or not you're not a bet I care to take
And father ignorance will make brothers of us all
Brothers of us all brothers of us all
As he sets our torch aflame
Chasing down the flimsy specters that we co-create
Over and over again
We keep that old wheel turning
We spin it around
I got a terror I can't shake pushing down on my lungs
Pushing down on my lungs pushing down on my lungs
It's got me lying there awake with a hand on a gun
While turning shadows into shapes
Mother fortuna o she makes sisters of us all
Sisters of us all sisters of us all
When the faces in her wake
Look more like our own than the effigies we immolate
Over and over again
We keep that old wheel turning
Over and over again
We lay the next spoke down
Over and over again oceans will roll in
Over and over again
We spin it around
