Sweet Talk

Lift me up on my honour
Take me over this spell
Get this weight off my shoulders
I've carried it well
Loose these shackles of pressure
Shake me out of these chains
Lead me not to temptation
Hold my hand harder
Ease my mind
Roll down the smoke screen
And open the sky
Let me fly
Then I need a release from
This troublesome mind
Fix my feet
When they're stumbling
And well you know it hurts sometimes
You know it's going to bleed sometimes
Dig me out from this thorn tree
Help me bury my shame
Keep my eyes from the fire
They can't handle the flame
Grace cut out from my brothers
When most of them fell
I carry it well
Let me fly
Then I need a release from
This troublesome mind
Fix my feet
When they're stumbling
I guess you know it hurts sometimes
You know it's going to bleed sometimes
Now hold on
I'm not looking for sweet talk
I'm looking for time
Top a tower and sleep walk
Brother, cause it hurts sometimes
You know it's going to bleed sometimes
Hold on
You know it's going to hurt sometimes
When you call me
Hold on (x3)
I'm gonna climb that symphony home
And make it mine
Let it's resonance
Light my way
See, all these pessimistic sufferers
Tend to drag me down
So I could use this to shelter
What good I've found
