Pent Up Genes Lyrics - Listener

Anything can be made with your own thoughts 

With your own hands 

With a face and a name 

Using a business pen 

But when you have to jump without being brave enough 

Starting from where you're at 

Knowing where you're at 

There's plenty of disappointment and no way to keep it 

I was the one you poured into 

I'm more an ambulance and not a doctor 

We'll go onto other places 

Holding through 

Sewing us together 

Folded over, feeding the machine 

That's some kind of life you got 

It grows the more it takes 

Covered in a frail confidence 

Painting our skin with the thoughts within 

If it's sad or if it's scary we are each others 

We are hope, you are 

Even if the voices carry 

So making a life that used to 

Alive inside the stones 

Throw us anywhere 

But don't stay face down 

And think the words that keep you there 

Backbone breaker, life and time taker 

How many days have you been loved 

In what ways outside of yourself 

Always beside you, the way your soul is attached 

Riveted into place, overlapped 

The best days of our lives are the ones we're alive 

Making our attempt at existing 

Some more work can be done 

Covering each other over and back 

Painting ourselves in our canvas 

Respect, take care, take chances 

That's some kind of life you got 

It grows the more it takes 

That's some kind of life you got 

It grows the more it breaks
