What's Past, Is Prologue
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You told each lie
Whilst standing by my side
What did you have to hide? (What did you have to hide?)
Your answers weren't binding
Oh so unsatisfying
I'm veering off the edge
Now I'm ready to take the fall
I spoke in riddles so you could understand
But what I should of said was
You only had one chance
Facts soon become untrue
All of which I can prove
With the truth by my side
I'm ready to take the fall
I'm only hoping they find what I see
Because I'm finding it hard to breathe
You gave me a picture of oxygen
While I was drowning in the deep
Oh my god, I can't take all these lies
that your giving me
It's time to bite the hand that feeds
(I'm only hoping they find what I see
Because I'm finding it hard to breathe)
You are the jailer of my truth
I'm only hoping they find what I see
Because I'm finding it hard to breathe
(Oh my god, I can't take all these lies
that your giving me
It's time to bite the hand)
You gave me a picture of oxygen
While I was drowning in the deep
I spoke in riddles so you can understand
But what I should of said was
You've only had one chance
