Naked As We Came - Iron & Wine & Ben Bridwell

Sundown it's time to feed it Your demons come to life You try but can't defeat them It's over say goodnight I see you shiver We're running out of time It's now or never I'm reaching for the knife And I see a new day rising As we divide Separate my soul Watch as you expose All this violence Out of control Cancer in my bones You wont let me go So it's you I sever Wake up the moon is rising You feel the other side Tonight you face the dying There's nowhere left to hide The taste so bitter But it will wash away I will deliver The sickness to the grave And I see a new day rising As we divide Separate my soul Watch as you expose All this violence Out of control Cancer in my bones You wont let me go So it's you I sever I cut the ties I've been betrayed My flesh and soul are still at war I shed the skin underneath I feel the light Set me free Separate my soul Watch as you expose All this violence Out of control Cancer in my bones You wont let me go So it's you I sever I see a new day rising! All this violence So it's you I sever! I see a new day rising! All this violence. It's you I sever It's you I sever! It's you I sever.
