Between never-lasting lies once or twice
I paused to think things through
I felt you in moments knocking me down
Postponing goodbys
Holding me at bay

It's my shame I let you hold me
Between the obscene & the bold
Loathing the moments of recognition
Until it came to light

I was born & buried Softley to do time
I had faith that lips were for smiling
Hands are for greeting
Fear is for guiding me into you
But it was worthless on your downside
Saints have given up, and sanity walked away

Saints have given up, and sanity walked away
Chest too numb to feel the debts of the dead
Pulses of deeds amused
I never went alone into the unknown against you

Love is slow & hard to push around by myself
Too deep to audit what's left of us
No matter what we give each other

In the end
It's us; we could never believe my love
It's the greed in the clarity of the moments
Between never-lasting lies
