Hey, we're swapping swords for the pen
And above all it's hard to shed skin
When bones get in the way
When life gets in the way
You see more fools than men
And above all, it's hard to say when
When we can begin swapping swords for the pen

Hey, you're staring down the abyss
And above all it's hard to resist
All the angles we've missed
All the seeds in the hay
We all have this disease
Hands up and answers now please
Now on your knees say amen
Swapping swords for the pen
Please, don't lie when your heart's in mine
Most days, your body is a mess
Please, don't lie, I can see through your eyes
Then again, we're swapping swords for the pen
Please, don't lie when your heart's in mine
Most days, your body is a mess
Please, don't lie, I can see through your eyes
Then again, we're swapping swords for the pen
