The Promise Ring

Suffer Never

The Promise Ring


Hanging around you turned me upside down 
You stole the clock when you left town 
There's never any time worn 
On the flower of a storm 
More inside children with outdoor names 
If we suffer never 
We won't know if we're out of the woods 
All those waters you left me 
If there's more please correct me 
The city grid on the window pane 

Now the phone keeps ringing 
I forgot how to converse 
Two weeks full of all sick days 

If we suffer never 
We won't know if we're out of the woods 
We won't know if we are feeling good 
She wakes up when I come in to sleep 
We park our cars on one spot on the street 
I wanted to turn the car into a functioning heart 
That we burned the house was just a start 
It could be so much better 
Get out of the weather now 

If we suffer never 
We won't know if we're out of the woods 
We won't know if we are feeling good 

If we never suffer 
Never turn the house around 
Burn the car down 
We won't know how
