Felix Culpa - Our Holy Ghosts lyrics

rate me

there's no room for mistakes in here my love

what with the promise of poisoned fruit that this place has offered up

and we've taken our spills with a heavy handed grace

at the hands of each other we'll be kissing one another

while covering our mistakes

we'll be in love with love it's not enough this time

you were the one that i always thought i'd keep

but whether in body or in my head my assumptions sing me to sleep

is there a separate room for those

of us who dance with our holy ghosts?

can we destroy our past with a light and a match

seal the door and hope it stays closed?

to be in love with love is not enough this time

you did what you had to do to prove to me that we just don't exist

and i never took the time to apologize for what i chose to miss

my dear if there's one bloom here in the roses in our frozen garden then

all the stars that fell from our hands will land and thaw the earth to bloom again.

you did what you had to do to prove to me that we were sinking ships

on the black jade of solemn seas where good men go to finally make their peace

my dear if there's one bloom here in the roses in our frozen garden then

all the stars that fell from our hands will fall to earth and we will bloom again.
