lyrics

1. Verse
Your eyes are lighting a slippery road between your lies. I dare you raising one I dare. 3 of yours will be against you, rain of shame over your bloody roof blurs my name on your skin. I’ll be the reason for your nights in pain. So keep on talking but your words won’t have a meaning. It’s swim or sink I’ll keep my head above the water no lies.

1. Chorus
Tie your arms (I still can smell your hair) and just worship my scars (I lived a lie) lie again into those eyes they’ll believe that nothing’s worth your pain. (And yet still your words) So you cry, cry, cry. (they follow me around) Lay your hands onto your chest you swear to death you’re innocent behind your lies.

2. Verse
I’m moving on I needed time. Take my words into your heart. I’ll light a match I’m sure that all of our bridges burned out. I’m so tired of your sickness hold on to your secrets. Shut your mouth and sit still, so still.

2. Chorus
Tie your arms (I still can smell your hair) and just worship my scars (I lived a lie) lie again into those eyes they’ll believe that nothing’s worth your pain. (And yet still your words) So you cry, cry, cry. (they follow me around) Lay your hands onto your chest you swear to death you’re innocent behind your lies.
I bet you know I doubt your secret. You keep on smiling but you shake behind a cigarette. Your hands are begging for my breath inside your chest, you will be by yourself. Until the morning when your heart will come to life.

3. Chorus
Tie your arms (I still can smell your hair) and just worship my scars (I lived a lie) lie again into those eyes they’ll believe that nothing’s worth your pain. (And yet still your words) So you cry, cry, cry. (they follow me around) Lay your hands onto your chest you swear to death you’re innocent behind your lies.
I bet you know I doubt your secret. You keep on smiling but you shake behind a cigarette. Your hands are begging for my breath inside your chest, you will be by yourself. Until the morning when your heart will come to life.
