lyrics

I feel the lightness of relief as I stand all alone
Where the airs so cold that I can see my breath
And I think about the things we say,how we dont say what we want to say and why we cant just say what it is we mean
And when are they going to stop calling it 'pillow-talk',90% of the time you will find yourself sitting upright
We're too busy wrapped up in the words

But theres still so many lies that i still have to unmake
And I wonder if I'll have the time

When all i seek is hiding under covers
And when we talk it just reminds
And when we speak,our words wrap round each other
They lie upon our skin as invisible signs
And I find it incredible,it is immeasurable,the words we inscribe on each other are indellable
Wounds can heal but words cant be unheard in time
We're too busy wrapped up in the words

But theres still so many lies that i still have to unmake
And theres so many promises that I still have to unbreak
I feel conviction through benediction

Hard times made me honest,its not the way I wanted
With so much to say,not enough to sing
Hard times made me honest its different but I promise it means everything

So in my moments of clarity,I'll write down every word that comes to me to form a web,a net spoken by you
Because as I've already mentioned,despite my best intentions the weight of my transgressions will catch me up in the end i know
And I'll need something to fall into

But theres still so many lies that i still have to unmake
And theres so many promises that I still have to unbreak
Cos I've seen this all before and you know that theres only so much I can take
I feel conviction through benediction
