The Thermals - A Pillar of SaltLyrics

We were born to sin We were born to sin We don't think we're special sir We know everybody is We've built too many walls Yeah, we've built too many walls And now we gotta run A giant fist is out to crush us We run in the dark We run in the dark We don't carry dead weight long We send them along to heaven I carry my baby I carry my baby Her eyes can barely see Her mouth can barely breathe I can see she's afraid She could see the danger We don't want to die or apologize For our dirty God, our dirty bodies Now, I stick to the ground I stick to the ground I won't look twice for the dead walls I don't want a white pillar of salt I carry my baby I carry my baby Her eyes can barely see Her mouth can barely breathe I can see she's afraid That's why we're escaping So we won't have to die, we won't have to deny Our dirty God, our dirty bodies
