Light This City The Unwelcome Savior歌词


You will find that some of the most exquisite eyes
Mask the cruellest secrets
A villainess in a goddess disguise
I grew to easily distinguish your lies
Your glossy, sincere smile, always too eager to please

Everything good, everything hopeful that you ever said
An obvious falsity, another loss of innocence
The only truths you’d rarely let escape
Horrifying enough to chill even the most shadowed soul
You fucked up everybody’s life you touched
How’s that for an accomplishment?
“Surprise! I made you this exclusive key to my closet.”
Well I never asked to see your skeletons.

How many crimes did you commit, guiltless and without mercy
Before you realized you longed to be caught?
In a way, I think you knew your secrets
Would break me and I’d confess for you
If you had played this desperate game more cunningly

Everything good, everything hopeful that you ever said
An obvious falsity, another loss of innocence
The only truths you’d rarely let escape
Horrifying enough to chill even the most shadowed soul
You fucked up everybody’s life you touched
How’s that for an accomplishment?
“Surprise! I made you this exclusive key to my closet.”
Well I never asked to see your skeletons.

I could have been your prisoner, your protégé, or your slave
But you succumbed to jealousy, an imaginary rivalry
You’d never admit it, who could possibly rival a queen?
But that’s not at all what I mean

I’d never pit myself against you
You’re right I’m sick with terror
At the thought of being compared to you
But not because I think I’d lose

My one worst fear
Is to become anything like you.

Light This City Sand and Snow歌词

09/30 19:11
Every city is a ghost town where I see remnants of us that will never fade because they'll never see the light. The streets remember our footprints, maps made in sand and snow, where we walked, side by side. The things we told eachother, piece by pie

Second chances only create even more seconds to wait. Everyone starts over. Turns a new leaf. But you're weak. And even the weight proves much too heavy when your already burdened with a Chip on your shoulder That cuts as deep as her treachery... And

10/12 03:37
In the distance, they are circling I watch them go around and around, never tiring The one near death is hypnotized and closes its eyes One last time Patiently they wait for that perfect moment to descend And pick to pieces a once healthy Body of pas

Light This City The Eagle歌词

He clasps the crag with crooked hands Deformed from gripping the rock so tight Close to the sun in lonely lands But the wax never melts from his wings Ringed with the azure world he stands Emperor of the sky, lord of the ocean The very image of a kin

Light This City Give Up歌词

10/12 03:37
I use the rags of betrayal and the fuel of desperation to light a fire. This temper is lost upon me, though it is sure to find you momentarily. I cannot afford to spend emotions on you, for I owe you nothing. My fury is unbreakable. I feel only the p

Light This City Apostate歌词

10/12 03:37
You used to spread your wings only when no one was looking, and when you finally trusted me enough to reveal them I slowly ripped them off. What have I done? Who now will carry me to heaven when this life is over? Eternally, I am unforgiven. We've co

Light This City Exile歌词

10/12 03:37
When you gaze into your polished metal plates You picture the face of a man who longs to see his soul But claws are claws, whether sharpened or painted or blunted From hours of bounding, one-track-minded, through the snow I have arrived, an exile too

Owl City The Saltwater Room歌词

I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light Walking down by the bay on the shore Staring up at the stars that aren't there anymore I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold So like an introvert, I drew my over shirt A

If I could look acros s the country From California to New Jersey Then I would count the parks and lake resorts And number all the jets and airports All those rather dreary rain clouds still bother me Cuz I look through the camera eyepiece and cannot
