Pour Me Out

Pour me out, pour me out like wine

Draw a blood red line in the ground

For every seed

Every seed must die

A muffled victory cry

That gets louder over time

Break me out of the walls we've made,

Out of the beauty parade and holy games

Sound the cry, there's a world outside

That needs your heart and mind

And your blood upon the ground

Take me out, break me open wide

So that the colours shine without fear

For every child has a jewel inside

We must never hide

But release into the wild

Send me out with the wounds that heal

With a heart that feels the dirt and pain

For what's inside won't get sick or die

But will infect and thrive

Like a light inside the dark

So pour me out, pour me out like wine

Draw a blood red line in the ground

For every seed, every seed must die

A muffled victory cry

That gets louder over time
