The Liar And The Lighter
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.
Oh, have some heart and hold it to your chest,
We weren't in love, we were too young
We throw,
Our words around as if they were not gold,
Well they are...
Oh, maybe someday I'll be something more,
Real with arms and legs so I can walk,
Away,
And stay away forever and some more,
Some more...
I'll stick around to watch this town fall,
Down to it's knees
You can pray the day that you hope,
Is coming round real soon
And I will run and stay away in a place,
I don't know at all
You can choose a different song,
That, you will soon love...
These are the reasons, that hurt me the most
Call off the search is, I'm coming home,
People lie once, but not on the third
Not without reason, not for a girl
The names will vary, the names they may change
But the game, the game it stays the same
We love,
We want the ones that we will grow to hate,
To hate...
Oh, it's just so...
So, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, uh...
I'll stick around to watch this town fall,
Down to it's knees
You can pray the day that you hope,
Is coming round real soon
And I will run and stay away in a place,
I don't know at all
You can choose a different song,
That, you will soon love...
Here are the reasons, that hurt me the most
Call off the search is, I'm coming home,
People lie once, but not on the third
Not without reason, not for a girl...
