Battalions - Brand New

Please say you’ll come along tonight

Please sing the words we love

Don’t say that you forgot them

Don’t keep the hand we’ve come to hold

I know you want to untie this rope and let it go

Please pose my skeletal remains

Give them a working pen

And I will live forever

Please let them love me though I fade

I know you want to

I know you want to

I know you want to run away

We’re finding our own tonight

We’re single spies when sorrow comes

They come on battalions

We’re finding our own tonight

A little light to keep it on our own battalion

Please keep these sounds from running out

Please let our steps fall soft

Keep them from hearing our tongue

Please let some hope come with the day

I know you want to

I know you want to

I know you want to run away

We’re finding our own tonight

We’re single spies when sorrow comes

They come on battalions

We’re finding our own tonight

A little light to keep it on our own battalion

I know you want to

I know you want to

I know you want to run away

And so we watch the time we keep

And you know that I am swift

You know that I am quick

You know that I am fast asleep

We’re finding our own tonight

We’re single spies when sorrow comes

They come on battalions

We’re finding our own tonight

A little light to keep it on

Our own battalion

I know you want to

I know you want to

I know you want to run away
