Song Lyrics

"Soft Skeletons"

by Anberlin
Album: New Surrender Deluxe Edition

Dear little girl
There's so much hurt
For such a young age
Trapped inside
A pretty little lie
Your body's betrayed

Don't fix your eyes on a fix you'll rely upon
Fixed her eyes on a fix she relies upon

Stand unafraid
All the good souls
Stand unafraid

When the light starts to burn
And the pain returns
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight
There's life in your veins
These needles aren't chains to hold you down
How can you expect to win this war
If your too afraid to fight
Well are you too afraid to fight'

Dear little one
That was so much pain
Time you can't replace
Trapped inside too afraid to cry and now
Hands and bruises cover face

Don't fix your eyes on a fix you'll rely on
Fix her eyes on a fix

When the light starts to burn
And the pain returns
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight
There's life in your veins
These needles aren't chains to hold you down
How can you expect to win this war
If your too afraid to fight

Stand unafraid
All the good souls
Stand unafraid
All of the good souls
Stand unafraid

When the light starts to burn
And the pain returns
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight
There's life in your veins
These needles aren't chains to hold you down
How can you expect to win this war
When the light starts to burn
When the pain returns
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight
There's life in your veins
These needles aren't chains to hold you down
How can you expect to win this war
If your too afraid to fight
