And I feel for me to get better That my roots can’t sustain on dead ground So I pick at some poor angel’s feathers Let the glue melt from stars all around And it’s hardened but pure, though My heart made of fool’s gold Has burdened too many with fear of my love And I know that’s a problem I don’t know how to solve When the surface don’t scratch, then the core doesn’t budge When the weight of the world’s sitting Anchored and firm on my tongue It’s like you’re Perceived from dimensions below And that’s hard to ignore If it’s what they don’t see That screams answers so bold How am I supposed to act on it? Let out a little lie I just don’t know what for When a heart seems too gold, when it’s not But it’s coal, when you’ve blown out the torch I thought things seemed so easy on paper But they’re stretched from the weight of your tears So I harvest the fruits I can’t savor ‘Til you spit out the words, I won’t hear But I know it’s fine, he prolly won’t lie to you And hide all his crumbles in dust of your own What a heartless disguise It’s hardly decipherable If you saw the signs Not through yours, but my eyes You’ve misjudged When through circles of hell You’re the first to be held In my arms It’s like you’re, (like you’re, like you’re) Perceived from dimensions below And that’s hard to ignore If it’s what they don’t see That screams answers so bold How am I supposed to act on it? Let out a little lie I just don’t know what for When a heart seems too gold, when it’s not But it’s coal, when you’ve blown out the torch Written by: jakethesnake
