Radical Face - A Pound Of Flesh Lyrics






My feet plow on
From light to dawn
My empty belly and my body aches
Ain’t hard to take
Next to the weight

I carry in my chest
A pound of flesh
Could never tip the scale that I’ve made
I should have stayed
But I was never wise

I hear your voices in the wind that cuts the night
And I pray to whatever is listening things’ll be all right

Oh, my boy, you're alive
Your heart's still beating
So don’t you mind, don’t you mind
We all drift sometimes

I can still hear your feet as you ran from the house
Knowing you won’t be back doesn’t mean that I will stop waiting
You told me then, hold me down, hold me up to the fire
But don’t you dare hold me back

Whoa…

I see your face's in the clouds that scar the night
And I pray to whoever is listening things’ll be all right

Then today I wake up feeling easy
And find I’m on the more familiar roads
I got a darkness wrapped inside me
But now it ain’t so hard to let it go
So keep a candle burning in the window
I’m almost home

    This song reminds me of a stage in my life where I constantly listened to this but I don’t remember when it was🤨

  2. K.... ....

    22 people were touched by this song so they pressed the wrong button on accident.

    K.... ....

    HA, you like this song too?

  3. C.... ....

    Sexo,armas,drogas é vida

  4. M.... N....

    Excellent Song!

  5. J.... ....

    Amazing, just like their website.

  6. B.... J....

    This band is amazing!  I absolutely love their music.  I can't believe this has been out and I have missed it.  Thank you for these beautiful sounds and touching lyrics!!!

    I am so confused. Why are we naming dates?

  9. P.... H....

    The main thing that makes my faith in humanity the way that it is is when I look at this fairly unknown band, and then at all of the popular music of today.

  10. R.... ....

    Great music and compelling lyrics.

  11. J.... T....

    I really like this song, but I wish the part from 1:04 thru 1:38 were longer.

  12. C.... L....

    The first ten songs I discovered from these guys, within the past twenty minutes, I thought okay, this is just a good streak from a band that's pretty amazing.  Ten more songs later and I'm floored.  Not a single song I haven't loved

    C.... L....

    @Cody Lakin the amazing part is that he plays most of the instruments (tho I know his brother's been playing a lot with him recently) AND records/produces it all on his own.

  13. c.... ....

    Count me deaf and you will see threw me, for actions speak louder than words

    THE COLOR OF THE LAND BEFORE same the color of family roots tree,the color of the land hides,

  30. R.... C....

    Ben....legend a term used all too frequently, however in you case well deserved, thank you and keep them coming...

  67. N.... H....

    God I love this song!

  68. N.... ....

    i never buy music. but im buying this because i want ben to make music forever

  69. b.... ....

    @dlkeith1983 from where?

  70. D.... K....

    In the process of downloading new album! Feels like Christmas has come early :)

  71. N.... ....

    Ben Cooper creates the most phenomenal music and has some of the most resonating lyrics I've ever heard. Even if you pirate your entire music collection, buy this f*cking album, because in my mind he's a genius and deserves every penny for releasing these tracks on his own

  72. B.... A....

    Ben NEVER dissapoints!!!
