   "A bone to break the dark, you said"
   is "both afraid of the dark again"

   "Don't you sag away" is "don't you shy away"

   "Lord no more
   Lord no more" = "I want more I want more rays light"

   The first part:

   Busted
   Don't you shy away
   Cause everyone will see
   One day
   Just what you did
   And you do
   One day everyone
   Will see you

   Rushing
   Don't you sag away
   Cause everyone will see you one day
   It's what you did
   // And you did
   One day, everyone will see you

   What has become of us?
   Watching the sand go down
   // Follow the bombs going off
   To see what they bust up
   It's like a game on the TV set
   What good will we get from this?
   Kill them till they're all dead
   //We'll get better yet

   Shotgun
   Point it at your head
   Tell me
   // Is there a spatter on your leg, oh?
   And worried of the dark again
   // Like the blackness could bring you away
   Always, hide away the shotgun
   // Like a simmering
   A battle for each of us, baby
   // Where we could dismiss ourselves from all this
   The war, like hiding
   From the past and what's coming on the road
   Wondering always, ah, yeah, yeah, the battle
   If I had one, some
   Shy away now, as I fire the shotgun

   What has become of us now?
   Chasing the avalanche down
   Look what's been lost around
   Maybe we should go dancing
   It's all a war, rain down
   What has become of us now?
   // So the TV keep me up at night
   Let's follow the bombs down

   Shotgun
   I said it's pointed at your head, baby
   Tell me
   Why are you afraid of the spider on your leg, oh?
   Shotgun
   // Both afraid the dark you said
   // Somebody has much worse things up in front, all the way
   Play me
   Play me
   Oh, but yeah
   Yeah, yeah, yeah
   Yeah, yeah, yeah
   Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
   I'm breathing, I'm breathing
   Yeah, yeah, yeah
   // I want more
   // I want more
   Rain down
   Shotgun

   What has become of us now?
   We follow the avalanche down
   See what gets buried below it
   See what it busted up
