All Chalked Up - Deep Sea Diver

«Keep quiet,» I said

Why do we have to find a reason?

You brush the war paint off my skin

And since you are a praying man, well

I suggest we ask to stop the bleeding

Cause all this small town ammunition

Oh it weighs down like a fog

And they’re all chalked up and just spitting dust

All over our hands

And I wash them clean again

This town’s made up of lepers from the same cup

Poison the wells and rake the coals

And now I touch your skin

That leaves me tired and exposed

All this small town ammunition

Oh it weighs down like a fog

But they’re all chalked up and just spitting dust

All over our hands

And I wash them clean again

My heart is burning with every urge to take the next train

But what’s the point of bruising for saints

Tryin to keep a good man new

So keep quiet, I said

Why do we have to find a reason?

You brush the war paint off my skin

Blankets of irons hang over our heads

Over our heads
