The Air Begins To Feel A Little Thin
As I Start The Car And Then I Begin
To Add The Miles Piled Up Behind Me
I Barely Feel A Smile Deep Inside Me

And I Begin To Envy The Headlights Driving South
I Want To Crack The Door So I Can Just Fall Out
But Then I Remember When You Packed My Car
You Reached In The Back And Buckled Up Your Heart

For Me To Drive Away With
I Began To Understand
Why God Died

The Demon Sat There Waiting On Her Porch
It Was A Little Dark So He Held A Makeshift Torch
And When My Car Was Far Out Of Sight
He Crept In Her Room And Stayed There For The Night

[2x]
And Then I Felt Chills In My Bones
The Breath I Saw Was Not My Own
I Knew My Skin That Wrapped My Frame
Wasn't Made To Play This Game
And Then I Saw Him, Torch In Hand
He Laid It Out, What He Had Planned
And Then I Said, I'll Take The Grave
Please, Just Send Them All My Way

I Began To Understand
Why God Died

The Air Begins To Feel A Little Thin
As We're Waiting For The Morning To Begin
But For Now You Told Me To Hold This Jar
And When I Looked Inside, I Saw
It Held Your Heart

For Me To Walk Away With
I Began To Understand
Why God Died
