Expire - Second Face lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Mind, body, and soul I gave to you

But under pale skin I could see it all

Now we pass like strangers

When I would have stood toe to toe with the gods for you

(Verse)

I was naive to everything

I would've given it all

But now I've seen your second face

Can't play the role of the pawn

Every ounce, every ounce of faith

That I poured into you

I should've known all along

But I just played the fool

(Chorus)

Count every second and every minute

Time wasted, building up hatred

Chose to ignore the truth

Refused to face it

(Verse)

Hanging by the tips of fingers

For too long I let it linger

I should have cut the rope

But I chose to live and suffer

When I should have

Just run for cover

Braved the storm

But it never stopped

(Chorus)

Count every second and every minute

Time wasted, building up hatred

Chose to ignore the truth

Refused to face it

(Bridge)

Chose to ignore the truth

Though I knew all along

Held on for my life

Afraid to take, afraid to take the fall
