The sun fell, another night began
Shots rang out, all the people ran
Confident in our innocence
Promises out in the wilderness
I know, I said, I would
I know, I said, I would
The martyred sons of a forgotten fit
Bend a knee for your favorite
So foolish in their innocence
Promises out in the wilderness
I know, I said, I would
I know, I said, I would
Hold my end, hold my end up, hold my end
Hold my end, hold my end up, hold my end
It's not too late to turn your back on them
What kind of friend would lead you to your death?
Don't be foolish in your innocence
Break the promise in the wilderness
I know, you said, you would
I know, you said, you would
I know
Hold my end, hold my end up, hold my end
Hold my end, hold my end up, hold my end
I know, you said, you would
I know, you said, you would
