I disagree with quite a few of the lyrics here, but I'm also not very good at doing lyrics. Anyay, this is what I'm hearing
She was in the backyard
diggin' out a trench,
prayin' for her father's gun again
all the holy weight they laid across your back
A hundred years you waste just thanking them for that
AND YOU CAN'T BLAME ANYONE
FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE
AND YOU CAN'T BLAME ANYONE
FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE
OH MY GOD YOU CAN'T
BLAME.
ANYONE.
BEFORE YOUR BRIDGES ARE BUILT, YOU'LL BURN THEM DOWN
You rebuilt a new face
empty by the wake (I question this line the most..)
painted it the one shade you could never fake
love would kick your crutches out from underneath
I was still a sandstone cutting up your feet
God was in our back yard
tearing down our fence
calling out our father's name again
we fixed him to the floor
covered up his ears
spending out a lifetime shaking off our fears
AND YOU CAN'T BLAME ANYONE
FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE
AND YOU CAN'T BLAME ANYONE
FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE
OH MY GOD YOU CAN'T
BLAME.
ANYONE.
BEFORE YOUR BRIDGES ARE BUILT, YOU'LL BURN THEM DOWN
Oh, but I could be
something else, entirely
and spill out of my burning hand
and underneath your door
and no, I do not see what you see in your old eyes
and I will be cutting up your fear for eternity
AND YOU CAN'T BLAME ANYONE
FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE
AND YOU CAN'T BLAME ANYONE
FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE
OH MY GOD YOU CAN'T
BLAME.
ANYONE.
BEFORE YOUR BRIDGES ARE BUILT, YOU'LL BURN THEM DOWN
I just heard something different by chance while randomly listening, and that line is sounding more like "empty but awake" now. Could still be entirely wrong, but it makes a little more sense if that's correct.

these are definitely the right lyrics, the only line I am unsure about is the line you were questioning yourself.
