With Ears To See And Eyes To Hear (Acoustic Version) Lyrics
Sleeping With Sirens
Lyrics
True friends lie underneath
their witty words I don't believe
I cant believe a damn thing they say anymore
Lie! Liar you'll pay for your sins Now
Liar I know all the places you've been
(Verse 1)
Forgiveness this taste all but poisons my mouth
I scream but nothing, nothing will come out
you've gone to far
(Chorus)
So tell me
How does it feel, how does it feel to be like you?
I think your mouth should be quiet
It never tells the truth
So tell me
So tell me why
Why does it have to be this way? Why cant things ever change?
(Verse two)
Falling over, and over again, why does it have to be this way?
From the place I was, to the place I am
To the place I want to be
For the mountains I've been climbing over and under and over
From the place that I was to the man I've become
Ill be there to see the tower you fall from
No this kingdom Isn't quite what it may seem
your an illusion you'll never be king
(chorus)
So tell me
How does it feel, how does it feel to be like you?
I think your mouth should be quiet
It never tells the truth
So tell me
So tell me why
Why does it have to be this way? Why cant things ever change?
(bridge)
Sometimes things are better left unsaid
but this time you'll get what you give
"come down come down from your tower"
"come down come down from your tower"
I know that for all my life in all my strength
There is only one above who can judge me
all I am is yours
all I am is yours
I am yours
