Wide Eyes Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My love was only temporary
I aged, but kept the memory
And still, it makes me shiver cold
There's no place to hide the past we bury
So like the Virgin Mary
She lied to save the family

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, my innocence was taken
I'll never be that boy again
I guess I'm only speculating
But there's no use in hearing the truth from a liar

[Chorus]
True was the bride at the turn of our time
Holding my, holding my
Holding my life in your body
I bottled up the pieces of the lie, of the lie
Who am I, who am I
To ever love you with wide eyes?

[Verse 2]
I am the dust behind the window
The darkness in the shadow
The stain under the pillow, son
And I'll be the perfect silent witness
I stink from all the bullshit
So feed me and I'll hold my tongue

[Pre-Chorus]
My innocence was taken
I'll never be that boy again
I guess I'm only speculating
But there's no use in hearing the truth from a liar

[Chorus]
True was the bride at the turn of our time
Holding my, holding my
Holding my life in your body
I bottled up the pieces of the lie, of the lie
Who am I, who am I
To ever love you, love you- ahh!

[Bridge]
Rage!
I'm the bad guy, I'm the bad guy
I'm the cynical kid, I'm the rage
I'm the big lie
I'm the goddamn shame of the goddamn pride
Rage!
I'm the bad guy, I'm the nice try
I'm the typical bitch with the rage
On my face
I'm the goddamn beast of the goddamn pride

[Chorus]
True was the bride at the turn of our time
Holding my, holding my
Holding my life in your body
I bottled up the pieces of the lie, of the lie
Who am I, who am I
To ever love you, love you- ahh!

True was the bride at the turn of our time
Holding my, holding my
Holding my life in your body
I bottled up the pieces of the lie, of the lie
Who am I, who am I
To ever love you with wide eyes?

True was the bride at the turn of our time
Holding my, holding my
Holding my life in your body
I bottled up the pieces of the lie, of the lie
Who am I, who am I
To ever love you

[Outro]
Love you
Love you
Love you?
