Only Crime - One Last Breath lyrics

rate me

Our stolen dreams betray an iron will

A shrouded face will never compromise or understand

Lit up live in fifteen thousand volts, just like poison

Waiting three steps out of sight

Resolved to stain the night with one last breath

There's a world where the bells surround you and it sounds like today

But your prayers come a little too late to save these words

Like a heart shattered from the outside

I see you fading away as we drift toward a canonized wake

Nothing reconciles our vacant choices now

That shadowed life nobody populates, now pushed away

And if I could read those choices back, you know I'd force it all

And what does silence mean to me as I choke on my last breath?

There's a world where the bells surround you and it sounds like today

But your prayers come a little too late to save these words

Like a heart shattered from the outside

I see you fading away as we drift toward a canonized wake

For those betrayed

All the tears that we crucified stepped through to the other side

I never really understood our peace beyond our patient tide

One kiss before you go, so much that we'll never know

If anything's familiar, let it die tonight and stay below
