lirik lagu glenmerle – whitewashing a grave
[verse 1]
all walls come slow
day by day the mortar dries, and parapets of self~righteousness rise
ooh~ooh~ooh~ooh~ooh
before you know it, towering defenses guard your heart or so you think
now i can’t [sing?]
i’m trapped inside this thickened skin, i can’t get out and no one can get in
ooh~ooh~ooh~ooh~ooh
how i long to be possessed, but rather than god i’m filled with myself
rather than god, i’m filled with myself
[chorus]
and i’m scared to admit
that i’m still just pretending that i don’t have these stains
that they’ll just fade away
and all that i’ve done
to pretеnd i have love was just whitewashing a gravе
whitewashing a grave
oh~oh, what have i become?
[verse 2]
please break my bones
i’d rather have some scars outside than live within this calloused [heart?] alone
ooh~ooh~ooh~ooh~ooh
i’d rather live in need of god than live like i cornered the market on
right and wrong
’cause i am not the potter, i’m just terra cotta
[chorus]
i’m scared to admit
that i’m still just pretending that i don’t have these stains
that they’ll just fade away
and all that i’ve done
to pretend i have love was just whitewashing a grave
whitewashing a grave
oh~oh, what have i become?
what have i become?
[bridge]
oh, i’ll weep and i’ll wail
just hope that it’s real
leaving my repentance can become a show
’cause under my skin
i found vipers within
i’ll beat my chest ’cause mercy is my only hope
i’ll beat my chest ’cause mercy is my only hope
[chorus]
yeah, i’m scared to admit
that i’m still just pretending that i don’t have these stains
that they’ll just fade away
and all that i’ve done
to pretend i have love was just whitewashing a grave
whitewashing a grave
oh~oh, what have i become?
what have i become?
