the temptation of st anthony

Alkaline Trio

My tender carrion
The damage has been done
From the depths of your heart
To the tip of my tongue
Not a word you can say
Can erase memories of that night
That awful night

It hides behind your eyes
I can feel it in my bones
It s come to tenderize us all
Tonight with sticks and stones
St. Anthony this agony
It s eating at my soul
Much like nothing this world has ever known

I found a hiding place
Not far from here
They ll never find a trace
Of you and I my dear
In a world far away
We d pass out from the pain
But not here
We feel it loud and clear

It hides behind your eyes
I can feel it in my bones
It s come to tenderize us all
Tonight with sticks and stones
St. Anthony this agony
It s eating at my soul
Much like nothing this world has ever known
Nothing this world has ever known

It s over now until it happens again
You haven t lived until you ve seen suffering like this

It s over now until it happens again
You haven t lived until you ve seen suffering like this
You haven t lived until you ve seen suffering like

It hides behind your eyes
I can feel it in my bones
It s come to tenderize us all
Tonight with sticks and stones
St. Anthony this agony
It s eating at my soul
Much like nothing this world has ever known
(Nothing this world has ever known)
Nothing this world has ever known

Known
