A Silent Film – Thirteen Times The Strength Lyrics

[Lyrics for A Silent Film – Thirteen Times The Strength]

I am not the man I thought I was
I have tied a weight to my ankle bones
Now I take my wrongs to Davey Jones
And you can find a man with a better soul

I dont ever want to see a face like that
So Ive left my clothes on the river bank
I dont want to face you with a heavy head
Ive taken my body to the river bed

Sinking underwater

Fighting like a feather
Slipping underneath the world
This weight upon my shoulders
Crushing all my hopes
Its thirteen times the strength
of anything I felt on earth

I am not the man I thought I was
Always let you down when you need me most
I am an American loading my gun
Pushing little children with plastic ones
