Out of all the words
You spoke
These were sealed
Half-past your lips
And with every exhale
I will breathe them in
But I forgot the storyline
I forgot my place to stand
So I held my head high
And now it's stuck
Beneath my spine
It is time to turn
And face the sun
Forget "safety in solace"
We have battles to be won
I carry untold secrets
And despite my lies I bet
That you will come
To know me
As the one
That fought the rest
I will breathe
For the first time
When I cast you
Out of my life
We will run
And dance and scream
And speak and shout
In foreign tongues
Do you remember
Why we bloomed so well?
Did I surrender
To your white thighs?
This is silence
This is the end
It is time to turn
And face the sun
Forget "safety in solace"
We have battles to be won
I carry untold secrets
And despite my lies I bet
That you will come to know me
As the one that fought the rest
So pick it up
Pick it up, pick it up
Come on and show me
What your made of
Seven years
In horrid daylight
And yet you complain?
So honestly, yeah?
Do you expect me
To remember?
Like you can wrap me
'Round your finger
I'll be dancing
On your fist
It is time to turn
And face the sun
Forget "safety in solace"
We have battles to be won
I carry untold secrets
And despite my lies I bet
That you will come to know me
As the one
That fought the rest
