93: CATCH

Music by Jeremy Decker / Words by Marlin Collins

 

We can take a man

And walk him up to the line.

Catch him if you can

His eyes that see are always blind.

Pouring in the salt

To wounds when he’s already dead.

Could it be the fault

Of words that were not ever said?

 

Wouldn’t need a reason

For taking too much time.

All the steps are freezin’

Coming from behind.

Looking for a hand

While falling further down.

Catch me if you can

No sympathy is ever found. (Chorus )

 

The pictures in the sand

Are washed away by the tide.

Lookin’ for a land

Where it is safe to reside.

Heard about a part

That’s broken off from the face.

It’s no place to start

When hope’s already gone to waste.

 

(Chorus )

 

Buried in the ground

Is what a life must become.

Listen for the sound

With feelings that are always numb.

Open up the hand

While grasping for the only way.

Faith is how we stand

Our debts we cannot ever pay.

 

(Chorus )

 

We can take a man

And walk him up to the line.

Catch him if you can

His eyes that see are always blind.

Pouring in the salt

To wounds when he’s already dead.

Could it be the fault

Of words that were not ever said?
