Gallows High - Telepath Lyrics

Truth has not been kind to me and silence has been cruel
With whips and blades they torture me for daring to bend their rules
Regret has yet to show it's face but I know someday it will
Strip me bare and bleed me dry like a prophecy fulfilled

So I wrestle with demons and argue with ghosts
And continue to love that which hurts me the most
I cling to my secrets and swallow my pride
A word never spoken cannot be a lie

Love has not been good to me, compelling me to chase
Led me from my refuge into a dark and dangerous place
Surrounded by a thousand suns, I keep my blindfold on
Too terrified to speak the truth, this coward holds her tongue

So I wrestle with demons and argue with ghosts
And continue to love that which hurts me the most
I cling to my secrets and swallow my pride
A word never spoken cannot be a lie

Read my mind, steal the words from my lips
'Cos I can't say them out loud
I won't run, I won't hide
I'll accept my punishment for the first time in my life

So I wrestle with demons and argue with ghosts
And continue to love that which hurts me the most
I cling to my secrets and swallow my pride
A word never spoken cannot be a lie
