Disguises - Voices Lyrics

Love was something meaningful
A blossom in the ash
You walk for an eternity, dig your heels in the grass
The warmest rays of Summer
Umbrellas in the rain
Caressing matted hair, and calmly shouldering the blame
The longer you bake in the sun, the easier it gets to lose your sight of what you love

Please say that we're working it out
Before you're crawling out the window into somebody's house
I know the bonds are wearing thin, when you pretend that all we've been
Is just a climb before the fall, into routines in the wall

Tonight I'm gonna stand up, paint a smile on my face
Pretend that I still live here, a memory you can't erase
I'll stay inside the attic, I'll come down when you need
The walls are living proof that what you love is what you keep
I can put up my fists for a fight, but I won't forget the promises you made tonight

Please say that we're working it out
Before you're crawling out the window into somebody's house
I know the bonds are wearing thin, when you acknowledge all we've been
Is just an unexpected fall through rough voices in the wall

Love was something meaningful, a diamond in the rough
I tried to keep it polished, I know that's not enough
To keep you interested in everything we could have been
Relinquished to reality of living in sin

(Better to be alone than to give up on yourself
Maybe I was stupid to ever think it's better to be alone than to give up on yourself
Maybe I was stupid to ever think it's better to be alone than to give up on yourself
Maybe I was stupid to ever think it's better to be alone than to give up on yourself
Maybe I was stupid)

Please say that we're working it out
Before you're crawling out the window into somebody's house
I know the bonds are wearing thin when you believe in all we've been
Just another lonely fall
