Our Lady Peace - Allowance Lyrics

Our Lady Peace Lyrics

"Allowance"

Skies like angels turn to rust
We hide inside our pickup trucks
Thoughts heavy like aeroplanes
Come crashing down and burst in flames
Memories. I cash them in
For peace of mind and some discipline

No turning back
I'm starting to mend
A fortunate man I've always been
A tear in my heart
If I don't concede
I'm only as good as you allow me to be

Friends will come and friends will go
You, my friend, hold my soul
Rain drops bullets from the sky
Inside my lungs a battle cry

I'm starting, starting, starting to mend
