A Place Called Here - Rise Above The Streetlights lyrics

rate me

Out of all the words you spoke<br />

These were sealed half-past your lips<br />

And with every exhale<br />

I will breathe them in<br />

But I forgot the storyline<br />

I forgot my place to stand<br />

So I held my head high<br />

And now it's stuck beneath my spine<br />

<br />

It is time to turn and face the sun<br />

Forget "safety in solace"<br />

We have battles to be won<br />

I carry untold secrets<br />

And despite my lies I bet<br />

That you will come to know me<br />

As the one that fought the rest<br />

<br />

I will breathe for the first time<br />

When I cast you out of my life<br />

We will run and dance and scream and speak and shout in foreign tongues<br />

Do you remember why we bloomed so well?<br />

Did I surrender to your white thighs?<br />

This is silence<br />

This is the end<br />

<br />

It is time to turn and face the sun<br />

Forget "safety in solace"<br />

We have battles to be won<br />

I carry untold secrets<br />

And despite my lies I bet<br />

That you will come to know me<br />

As the one that fought the rest<br />

<br />

So pick it up, pick it up, pick it up<br />

Come on and show me what your made of<br />

Seven years in horrid daylight, and yet you complain?<br />

So honestly, yeah?<br />

Do you expect me to remember?<br />

Like you can wrap me 'round your finger<br />

I'll be dancing on your fist! <br />

<br />

It is time to turn and face the sun<br />

Forget "safety in solace"<br />

We have battles to be won<br />

I carry untold secrets<br />

And despite my lies I bet<br />

That you will come to know me<br />

As the one that fought the rest
