A Northern Chorus – Amnesty lyrics

Wrap in your cacoon tight,
Shut all the blinds to dim the light,
Match all your scars with the wreckless wars you've fought with the boys and think to yourself "maybe next time I'll do things right."

Loves the most dangerous game, snipping and clipping your heart away
Everyone's bringing something new, but as they leave so does a piece of you

There's forgiveness here, there's forgiveness there,
Redemption is near, just call on His name
Yeah we're getting off easy,
God makes all things new love and he'll do it for you

Pick up the pieces part by part, there's not enough glue to mend your heart
Be careful the pieces cut like glass, take a look at your hands, the blood, the mess

There's forgiveness here, there's forgiveness there,
Redemption is near, just call on His name
Yeah we're getting off easy,
God makes all things new love and he'll do it for you

Yeah the problem with forgiveness is the rope around your neck, and this feeling like your sinking is the product of regret
Lifting nooses off of shoulders is the business that He's in, leave the sorrow to the sinking and abandonement to sin

There's forgiveness here, there's forgiveness there,
Redemption is near, just call on His name
Yeah we're getting off easy,
God makes all things new love and he'll do it for you
