Break Your Knees - Flyleaf

Breaks your knees and leaves you so

The sun can burn you up and wear you out

It’s an angry summer

There’s no room to smile

When the face you make just before you cry

Looks so young like a child

The sun will set on this, my dear

Your labors aren’t in vain

You’re blistered and you’re burned from it

Your wounds are gonna heal

Life on earth will end for all conceived

And prove to be only a breath

A mist, a womb for what’s to come

How soon forever arrives

The sun will set on this, my dear

Your labors aren’t in vain

You’re blistered and you’re burned from it

Your wounds are gonna heal

Steadfast, my love, the end is near

Just keep your eyes ahead

Grab hold of me, I’ll help you there

You’re never on your own, you’re never all alone

Life on earth will end for all conceived

And prove to be only a breath

A mist, a womb for what’s to come

How soon forever arrives

Breaks your knees and leaves you so

The sun can burn you up and wear you out

It’s an angry summer

Don’t look at the past again

The first and last has made everything new

And you are too, so lift your head

And let your story be told

Life on earth will end for all conceived

And prove to be only a breath

A mist, a womb for what’s to come

How soon forever arrives

The sun will set on this, my dear

Your labors aren’t in vain

You’re blistered and you’re burned from it

Your wounds are gonna heal

The sun will set on this, my dear

Your labors aren’t in vain

The sun will set on this, my dear

Your labors aren’t in vain
