Jaded Lyrics
Spiritbox
Lyrics
I feel alone in my body
I feel a silence underneath
In these valleys of blood
In these rivers of rust
Shoulder all the blame again
Mirror locked until the end
It was violent and rough
I was never enough
But what if I was stable enough to wind me down the road
Like a remora swims?
But what if I was inside a thousand lives to give my ghost?
It's never enough, it's never enough
And I've always been ashamed that I want to
Fall into a dream with my honour desecrated
Blood is jaded
I've never found a way to be honest
All I know is a place where I haunted memories faded
Blood is jaded
In my dreams all I see is a crimson key
Tethered by a falling string
Meant to turn in the lock for me I can't leave so I justify
Interloper of confidence under pressure of influence
Not a curse that I caused, never to rot
What if I was? (What if I was?)
What if I was?
(It's never enough, it's never enough)
And I've always been ashamed that I want to
Fall into a dream with my honour desecrated
Blood is jaded
I've never found a way to be honest
All I know is a place where I haunted memories faded
Blood is jaded
I know where I want to go
But you know that it's too close
And you know that it's too late this time
And I've always been ashamed that I want to
Fall into a dream with my honour-
I've never found a way to be honest
All I know is a place where I haunted memories faded
Blood is jaded
I've always been ashamed that I want to
Fall into a dream with my honour desecrated
Blood is jaded
Ooh, I've never found a way to be honest
All I know is a place where I haunted memories faded
Love is jaded
(What if I was?)
