Archer V. Light Lyrics - Singles - Chris Walla

You are 'Sir', you're a senator 

And senator, you were right 

It's just a law, not the word, not the law 

I'm learning how to speak again 

These words are only structures 

When you choose to frame them in 

And obviously, the framers would agree 

You own a chair and you are not there you noble senator 

Oh, dear sir, I'm a librarian 

And while I do not know of law 

I know the things that make my stomach pitch and yaw 

If I were gavaged on hunger strike 

Wrongly fired upon or sullied blindly by dogs 

I'd hate us too and that's why I've cornered you 

Roman senator, can you still hear 

With all the marks on your ears? 

Face me now 

I want to see you break it down 

I want to feel our stars colliding 

I want to see the sweat pour from your brow 

I'll let it go 

You're gonna see me lose control 

We do not fight for isolation 

Have you seen the injuries? 

I want to see 

Your heart of gold again 

Your heart of gold 

We are kind 

Do you remember that? 

I wanna see your pro-life 

Bear no exception 

You grand, old senator 

Oh, dear sir, I'm a librarian 

And I am not always right 

But ours is the story 

Of the archer and the light
