Liars

from Little Kingdoms by Stork

lyrics

Last night we woke to the screams of the devil
hiding somewhere in my chest
To know someone's missing what's buried somewhere;
more than a man could confess

I stepped outside to get some blood in my knees
held you then just for solid relief

So steady your motives, while I calm my breathing
At the first sign of light, you said we were leaving
No, you're leaving and I'm coming along

But I still slept better wrapped in that blessing
All of my dreams had such glorious endings
When I realized we were running away.
When I realized we were running away.

Forget the guilt that still survives
and lives inside only to breed this haunting
Oh, I tried to make peace and believe
that there is worth hiding behind this wanting

You're only waiting on a wish just like everybody else
I'm very sorry, but sometimes I think I know that wont help
Wish to forget that wishes ever existed
We can change plans but we cant paint pictures

Rubbing my eyes to straighten the edges
and brighten my last sight of this fleeting calmness

Nobody moved we were glued to that safe ground
five of us laid out with one sprawling sundown
And that's what I'm planning on missing

You swear the view from the sky looks no different
So I would not follow if I thought I'd regret it.
Well, aren't we a damn lot of liars
Aren't we just a damn lot of liars


What did I do
To know you
like I know you
right now
