Lyrics

Slip

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.

In the centre of the silence, violent thoughts that you go through

The thick smoke of flickerin' lights that brighten the room

All the things that you wanted to say get lost and thrown away

You can bait and hesitate to speak your mind

Can't turn back when you cross the line

Sometimes there's someone you know who just doesn't care

Has to see you go to know you were there

This is the sun behind the rain

Even though sometimes I feel I can't stand another minute

The maybe gun to run and then must race

But I never look back when I'm beginnin'

I know that, this is the sun behind the rain

Even when sometimes I feel I can't stand another minute

The maybe gun to run and then must race

But I never look back when I'm beginnin'

I know, all of this will soon

Be gone

You don't, really have to prove

Them wrong

Sometimes you got no control of where you go

Taken down a road you don't know

And you feel so lost that you wanna hide your face

You don't recognise the place you're in

Sometimes the sun doesn't shine your way

Sometimes the night doesn't turn to day

Sometimes the lights so bright it burns through the night

And keeps the darkness at bay

This is the sun behind the rain

Even though sometimes I feel I can't stand another minute

The maybe gun to run and then must race

But I never look back when I'm beginnin'

I know that, this is the sun behind the rain

Even when sometimes I feel I can't stand another minute

The maybe gun to run and then must race

But I never look back when I'm beginnin'

I know, all of this will soon

Be gone

You don't, really have to prove

Them wrong

I know, soon enough you'll make

Them see

You'll be, far away from them

With me

Follow the link in the chain without a name

Sealin' the light in the dark contains the rain

Taking you away from the place you've been trapped

Break all you know to bring it all back

This is the sun behind the rain

Even though sometimes I feel I can't stand another minute

The maybe gun to run and then must race

But I never look back when I'm beginnin'

I know that, this is the sun behind the rain

Even when sometimes I feel I can't stand another minute

The maybe gun to run and then must race

But I never look back when I'm beginnin'

I know, all of this will soon

Be gone

You don't, really have to prove

Them wrong

I know, soon enough you'll make

Them see

You'll be, far away from them

Alone-with-me
