While Kansas city sleeps
|
cloaked in the twilight of this valley
|
at this church cross standing
|
roadside from a tree
|
I keep driving to the most desolate seclusions
|
my blackest secrets still imprison me
|
and why don't we say what we really feel?
|
|
Whenever things are at their best...
|
whatever lies will help you rest
|
whenever things are at their best...
|
why do we wait for them to fall apart?
|
fall apart
|
|
Waking to the after-taste
|
of cheap wine and bad decisions
|
my heart trembles in this morning prayer
|
I could shield my eyes
|
from this inner most seductions
|
but still somehow you found me there
|
and why don't we say what we really feel?
|
|
Whenever things are at their best...
|
whatever lies will help you rest
|
whenever things are at their best...
|
why do we wait for it to fall apart?
|
|
And it's probably safe to say
|
I'm not the world safest bet
|
I've never been too good at being good
|
and its probably safe to say...
|
|
Whenever things are at their best...
|
whatever lies will help you rest
|
whenever things are at their best...
|
why do we wait for it to fall apart?
|
|
Whenever things are at their best...
|
whatever lies will help you rest
|
whenever things are at their best...
|
why do we wait for it to fall apart?
