Song | Tell a Lie |
Artist | Dresses |
Album | Sun Shy EP |
[00:04.18] | When we tell a lie we watch it float |
[00:07.80] | Into clouds and worlds we can’t control |
[00:11.18] | In the mean time birds go on and sing their honest songs |
[00:17.04] | Had you left yourself an honest note |
[00:22.09] | You’ll hear your words speak on their own |
[00:25.83] | And sound like a man you met so long ago |
[00:29.95] | I’ve wasted all this time |
[00:38.41] | Reciting empty lines |
[00:40.90] | That cast a spell on the ones who make me whole |
[00:43.77] | And I can’t let myself give up the hope |
[00:51.08] | That one of these days I’ll have control |
[00:54.69] | Till now I’ve known how to shape my words |
[00:58.38] | So all those who love me don’t get hurt |
[01:02.18] | By my lengthy lists of ways to make things seem okay |
[01:06.30] | Well if I heard it right then life is all |
[01:16.53] | Just a dance you dance until you can’t no more |
[01:20.04] | And I’ve realized birds have sung the same tune all along |
[01:25.04] | They say we fly we dance for nothing more |
[01:30.96] | Than to make our lives worth living for |
[01:34.46] | So either way being I will be okay |
[01:39.08] | I’ve wasted all this time |
[01:46.52] | And I can’t let the world engulf my soul |
[01:53.10] | Cuz one of these days I’ll be no more |
[01:56.48] | And now my list seems a petty resort |
[02:00.17] | To entertain the thoughts I had before |
[02:03.85] | When I sung the lie to something wasn’t |
[02:07.66] | Right when I held myself no higher than me |
[00:04.18] | When we tell a lie we watch it float |
[00:07.80] | Into clouds and worlds we can' t control |
[00:11.18] | In the mean time birds go on and sing their honest songs |
