LYRICS:

I was never giving in 

I was never giving up 

I was never

I always favor less-than-hallowed ground 

a trick to make the holy stay inside 

sirens made a mess of what I found 

so I always favor less-than-hallowed ground  

I always favor less-than-hallowed ground 

so neighbors don’t report what they have heard 

even those without belief keep their heads down 

I always favor less-than-hallowed ground  

I’m still here 

Sterilized and hoping 

That if I am a wound 

I’m not the type to ever heal.  

 

I have found 

the worst will drag us down 

but the best won’t dig us up like we deserve 

and I have found 

that if you’re gonna drown 

it’s best to hold your breath  

starting now.
