Roger Lian - The Light & The Gla** lyrics

[Verse 1] Slowly the pen touches paper In the guidance of the words that you write Memories roll in of the things you once did And who you had shared them with Is somebody thinking of you? Did I bother telling you this With the words that cross teeth and jump lips? A poor choice of words in wanting to tell you anything But words don't come with ease They're forever my hurt Would it really matter If you were to count the days left with your hands? Your focus secure on the loves you left well Smiles staged in photographs Here until... You, you left the light on There's a chance I might have tripped, girl But you were there to hold on [Pre-Chorus] Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother "k** or be k**ed," spilled the words from your mother I'll lay awake for a while I'll leave the light on a while [Chorus] But you couldn't last a lifetime Caught between here and the days of it Carving her name across your arm With every wish, it's hit or miss...her I told you so I measure distance in lines Departing the rest of my life [Verse 2] But you, you, you You had better things to do But you, you, you You had better things to do Liar, liar, liar, liar Liar, liar, liar, liar Liar, liar, liar, lie away Liar, liar, liar, liar Liar, liar, liar, liar Liar, liar, liar, lie away [Pre-Chorus] Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother "k** or be k**ed," spilled the words from your mother I'll lay awake for a while I'll leave the light on a while [Chorus] But you couldn't last a lifetime Caught between here and the days of it Carving her name across your arm With every wish, it's hit or miss...her I told you so I measure distance in lines Departing the rest of my life [Bridge] If you'd get put to sleep Like an old dog, you're better off If you'd get put to sleep I've been cautious with the words I extend Allow this year before the world starts to end "Your father's dead, he pa**ed in his sleep" And I woke to the sounds of her crying "Your father's dead, he pa**ed in his sleep" And I woke to the sounds of her crying "Your father's dead, he pa**ed in his sleep" And I woke to the sounds of her crying "Your father's dead, he pa**ed in his sleep" [Outro] Pray for us all (Pray for us all) Pray for us all (Pray for us all) Pray for us all (Pray for us all) Pray for us all (Pray for us all) [Instrumental]
