"The Vows" lyrics

"The Vows"

There's a shard of glass under your smile
And a shattered pane inside your voice
I hope you die before I do, I do
Medicate the cogs that turn too well
Dulled teeth can't drive the carousel
I hope you die before I do, I do

Though you try hide your life from the public eye
Then tell them it was performance in the highlights
We never spoke but you kiss me well
What is faith if not devotion in a patient's cell
I've written both our initials on my wrist with ink
Mark the space just in case you wanna brand them in
If you don't that's alright, I can improvise
I can heat you up from the sidelines
I am the ghost in your sold-out seats
I am the apparition haunting all the dressing rooms you left empty
Belay with headlines delay with law
They merely talk of your heart but I visit nightly

There's a shard of glass under your smile
And a shattered pane inside your voice
I hope you die before I do, I do
Medicate the cogs that turn too well
Dulled teeth can't drive the carousel
I hope you die before I do, I do

There's a shard of glass under your smile
And a shattered pane inside your voice
I hope you die before I do, I do
Medicate the cogs that turn too well
Dulled teeth can't drive the carousel
I hope you die before I do, I do
I hope you die before I do
