lyrics

Said I wasn’t sorry
But the truth is I lied
Cause my tongue is always tied
Around the second story that I’ve told tonight

I haven’t got a reason
Why my mind is lost at sea
Sailing with the amputees
The missing bits and pieces
Keeping company

So take my place
And tell me all the things
I’ve yet to say
Memories are leaking
Little boy long been taught
Set to reprimand my thoughts
When will I remember
What I once forgot

Sin has been forgiven
But I’ll take what I receive
Every stem and all the seeds
The barrel’s rotten apples
Have a taste for me

So take my place
And tell me all the things
I have yet to say
Please stay
And listen to the things I have yet to say

Solace is collapsing
I can hear the left unsaid
And it’s furrowing my head
And I could raise a white flag
But I’ll smile instead
Smile instead
