Stakes Lyrics - Singles - Vancouver Sleep Clinic

From the lake 

Where I lost it all 

Stacked on the stake 

Yet you blessed the fall 

I guess that I knew I was warned 

I left my words in the cold 

The things that I built for myself 

Castles are tumbling down 

Surrender the heir, savour the crown 

Here lies where I drown 

The first time that I sought for grace 

But not the last lung I'd put to waste 

I'm burning down the stakes 

Wash away, wash away

I'm burning down the stakes 

Wash away, wash away 

Tumbling through this jaded book 

The hearts I stole, the air I took 

What love is this 

And now the photograph is all that's left 

To feed the wolves and empty chests 

To break the best 

The first time that I sought for grace 

But not the last lung I'd put to waste 

I'm burning down the stakes 

Wash away, wash away 

I'm burning down the stakes 

Wash away, wash away 

I'm burning down the stakes 

Wash away, wash away 

Photos 

I'm burning down the stakes 

Wash away, wash away 

I never bled for a thousand lies 

Just to stem the flow 

I never wept over a thousand lives 

Just to let this go 

I never bled for a thousand lies 

Just to stem the flow 

I never wept over a thousand lives 

Just to let this go 

Wash away, wash away, wash away, wash away
