Lyrics When It Was Good - Mother Falcon

When It Was Good

I close my eyes to see the sky
I bite my lips to feel again
How could I pour my blood for something so sure?
Knuckles turned white, I’ll bleed for my word
Grind my teeth into the breeze
You held me locked without the keys
Now on elbows calloused knees
I’ve fallen in the land of hands where the blind can see
You swallowed me whole
You swallowed me whole
I’ve seen devils in the hills
Angels, hands filled with pills
Eyes closed, breath held, holding still
As not to stir, the purest morning fir
When it was good
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god
I see I see I see
See a brave new world
It’s crashing down around me
It’s crashing down around me
It’s crashing down
When it was good
