Lyrics Soft Skeletons - Anberlin

Dear little girl, there was so much hurt
For such a young age
Trapped inside a pretty little lie
Your body's betrayed

Don't fix your eyes on a fix you'll rely on
She fixed her eyes on a fix she relies upon

Stand unafraid
All the good souls stand unafraid

When the light starts to burn, and the pain returns
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight
There's life in those veins
These needles are chains to hold you down
How can you expect to win this war?
You're too afraid to fight
Well are you too afraid to fight?

Dear little one, that was so much pain
Time you can't replace
Trapped inside, too afraid to cry, and now
Hands and bruises cover face

Don't fix your eyes on a fix you'll rely on
She fixed her eyes on a fix

When the light starts to burn, and the pain returns
I just wish that I could heal the wounds you feel tonight
There's life in your veins
These needles are chains to hold you down
How can you expect to win this war
If you're too afraid to fight?

Stand unafraid
All of the good souls
Stand unafraid of
Stand unafraid of the good souls
Stand unafraid

When the light starts to burn, and the pain returns
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight
There's life in those veins
These needles are chains to hold you down
How can you expect to win this war?
When the light starts to burn, and the pain returns
I just wish that I could heal the hurt you feel tonight
There's life in your veins
These needles are chains to hold you down
How can you expect to win this war
If you're too afraid to fight?
