like a tattoo

he told me sweet lies of sweet loves 
heavy with the burden of the truth 
and he spoke of his dreams 
broken by the burden 
broken by the burden of his youth 
fourteen years he said 
i couldn't look into the sun 
she saw him laying at the end of my gun 
hungry for life 
and thirsty for the distant river 
i remember his hands 
and the way the mountains looked 
the light shot diamonds from his eyes 
hungry for life 
and thirsty for the distant river 
like the scar of age 
written all over my face 
the war is still raging inside of me 
i still feel the chill 
as i reveal my shame to you 
i wear it like a tattoo 
i wear it like a tattoo 
i wear it like a tattoo

pearls

there is a woman in somalia 
scraping for pearls on the roadside 
there's a force stronger than nature 
keeps her will alive 
this is how she's dying 
she's dying to survive 
don't know what she's made of 
i would like to be that brave 

she cries to the heaven above 
there is a stone in my heart 
she lives a life she didn't choose 
and it hurts like brand-new shoes 

hurts like brand-new shoes 

there is a woman in somalia 
the sun gives her no mercy 
the same sky we lay under 
burns her to the bone 
long as afternoon shadows 
it's gonna take her to get home 
each grain carefully wrapped up 
pearls for her little girl 

hallelujah 
hallelujah 

she cries to the heaven above 
there is a stone in my heart 
she lives in a world she didn't choose 
and it hurts like brand-new shoes 
hurts like brand-new shoes 




bullet proof soul

i was so in love with you 
you rarely see a love that true 
wasn't that enough for you 
wasn't that enough for you 

i would climb a mountain 
i wouldn't want to see you fall 
rock climb for you 
and give you a reason for it all 

you kept on thinking 
you were the only one 
too busy thinking 
love is a gun 

hit me like a slow bullet 
like a slow bullet 
it took me some time to realise it 

you kept on thinking 
you were the only one 
too busy thinking 
love is a gun 

i know the end before 
the story's been told 
it's not that complicated 
but you're gonna need a bullet proof soul 

you kept on thinking 
you were the only one 
too busy thinking 
love is a gun 

i know the end before 
the story's been told 
it's not that complicated 
but you're gonna need a bullet proof soul 

you were trigger happy baby 
you never warned me let me free 
it's not that complicated 
but you're gonna need a bullet proof soul 
think you got it but you got all the trouble you need 
i came in like a lamb 
but i intend to leave like a lion 

it hit me like a slow bullet 
it hit me like a slow bullet
