Quicksilver

Lyrics

(Verse 1) You were speaking another language That my heart wasn't understanding' Now speech was becoming frantic What can I say? I'm a romantic I'm attracted to disappointment Like i planted a fly in the ointment Just to puncture what I had enjoyed building with you in a moment of annoyance If it ever taught me anything it's that I should never listen to my inner voices If I ever I hope to avoid being a victim of ill-advised choices Poison, so paranoid of strange noises How they were putting place in destroy us I couldn't recognise, I was choosing to employ them It's on me, for making the wrong move I was taking the long way home when I put it all on you You were paying for my mood Pretty soon you were outta comments see You were done with me, you turned Until the back of you, was the only thing I had in front of me (Chorus) The more I try to hold you in my arms The more you would slip away If only I eased the grip of my palms Then perhaps you'd have chosen to stay (Verse 2) I was by myself and I did it by myself Thought I didn't love you, but I did, I just didn't like myself So I have to find myself, try to redefine myself Read the fine print see what I'm missing really redesign myself I could never cry for help or seek you out for guidance For the fear that you might recognize Weakness disguised as kindness Those sleepless nights remind me Of that peace you tried providing When my peace of mind was hiding I couldn't see my eyes were blinded You saw deep inside my Iris, witnessing my very soul Looking beyond anything I'd ever been able to hold You were bold Taking it all in, climbed unafraid of the fallin' But by the break of the morning you were morning I never saw your warnings I ignored what I was ignoring when I was touring and wasn't calling We wouldn't talk anymore til I got back home It was then that I started performing A storm between you and I, we're warring and now it's do or die It's either self sabotage of social suicide (Chorus)
