Lyrics
Acts Of Desperation
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.
There went the fact that you're not alone
Cover every detail, tell those secrets you tell
Capture every motion overload
While the acts of desperation only go so far
As the sea of moaners press against
my head dividing changing course
like the current that past through
that keep leading back to you
and I won't deny I've seen enough
I can't deny I've seen enough for a lifetime
But not this time
There went the fact that you're not alone
Cover every detail, tell those secrets you tell
Capture every motion overload
While the acts of desperation only go so far
When these new obsessions make their way into your possession
It becomes a novelty, just a petty little thing
and I won't deny, I've seen enough
For a lifetime, but not this time
There went the fact that you're not alone
Cover every detail, tell those secrets you tell
Capture every motion overload
While the acts of desperation only go so far
When you put yourself out there too soon
I was making ways to get to you
I can recognize when this began
When you leave the ones,
The ones you call your friends
Come on back to me and we'll transcend
