lyrics

Faith Is Stranger

How’d you forget
When your father said
It cant be wise to take this world to heart?

You left your love alone and frail
Replaced in one exhale
Put me out my modern emperor

The faith is stranger than the street
I’m lucid in the mezzanine
Really swinging hard

What little time we have to talk
Covering up my eyes, up my eyes to watch

Sirens offshore bearing down with heavy lights
And you were my black and white
Built like a tidal wave
Soon to fall apart
Come in close my modern emperor
Come in close my modern emperor

Couldn’t choose a life to save
Take ‘em all away
And leave me with the consequences
Out of touch
You crept inside the tunnels waiting for the violence to let up
The people went away

So why did you give it up babe, like you can’t stand for nothing?
So why did you give it up babe, like you can’t stand for nothing?
So why did you give it up babe, like you can’t stand?

Sirens offshore bearing down with heavy lights
And you were my black and white
Built like a tidal wave
Soon to fall apart
Come in close my modern emperor
Come in close my modern emperor
