Gospel Lyrics >> Song Title :: The Terrible Secret
Gospel Lyrics >> Song Artist :: Emery
Pave these streets with open arms
It's always you we're waiting on
The skin, the taste, the drug, the need
I'm asking, telling you, don't leave
Erase the lines that we have drawn
It's always you we're waiting on
And waiting on and waiting on
And on and on and on and on
These are our words, we built these vows
But all the letters of the alphabet could never spell it out
These hopes and dreams that we tap through
To cling to something that is bigger than the veil that tips at you
Wait wait wait, I don't wanna see
Wait wait wait, I am not the person anyone would want to be
The perfect shoes with matching clothes
It is the lie we're always told
And nothing masks the shallow touch
By saying words that cost so much
While you're an addict to the need
To find yourself a way to breathe
The sex, the purge, the pain, the book
To reflex feelings that we took
These are our words, we built these vows
But all the letters of the alphabet could never spell it out
These hopes and dreams that we tap through
To cling to something that is bigger than the veil that tips at you
Perfection, it's perfection
But never quiet enough, and never could disguise
The truths to make it stain the wanting in your eyes
The morning that you've spent, but you're still an accident
We are more than words that fill our mouths
Drink with us then tell us the answers that we need
These are our words, we built these vows
But all the letters of the alphabet could never spell it out
These hopes and dreams that we tap through
To cling to something that is bigger than the veil that tips at you
Wait wait wait, I don't wanna see
Wait wait wait, I am not the person anyone would want to be
Waiting here til you leave...
