Lyrics Every Time I Die

Every Time I Die

El Dorado

You were alone when you came in

You'll be alone when you leave again

And in the middle there's nothing

That can keep you around when it's time to go home

Because everybody I lean on

(since I don't trust myself)

Leans on someone else

Watch the colonies collapse like dominoes

I could beg and I could plead

But all I hear is the echo of my own voice begging me

The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic wasteland

The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic wasteland

I crawled on hands and knees just to be there with you

And you moved on without me

Scrap the crown, clear the slate

Cut off you roots, you're on your own

Scrap the crown, clear the slate

Cut off you roots, you're on your own

We all need something

I'm a gypsy queen

Without a swarm

And the burning bridges keep me warm

I'm a new wave

In a dried up stream

I'm just trying to find my way out to the sea

You were alone when you came here

You'll be alone when you leave again

And in the middle there's nothing

That can keep you around when it's time to go home

Because everybody I lean on

(since I don't trust myself)

Leans on someone else

Watch the colonies collapse like dominoes

I could beg and I could plead

But all I hear is the echo of my own voice begging me

The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic waste

The fossils of the teen age are well preserved in the arctic waste

Crush your allies

Crush your allies
