Speak Easy - Words Like Daggers

I’m sitting by the street where time would fly

I’ve got countless moments till she arrives

She’s afraid of picturing me like somebody she used to know

Don’t believe a word they say because every time will complicate this

So tell me why

Pass the flask, speak easy now

Take your last look into the past and write it out

Got a better view, through with this black glass

Hold on while our heads slip back

And when the movements start spinning all around

Don’t be sure I’ll catch you when you’re falling down

Broken like thin glass pieces, just a figure in this old game

Closed eyes see through my lens

Got so many pictures that frame the way you held your end

No, no, she won’t apologize for all the times she spoke like

The Devil’s on her shoulder, her words getting colder with every lie

But I won’t be a fool this time

Pass the flask, speak easy now

Take your last look into the past and write it out

And write it out

Got a better view, through with this black glass

Hold on while our heads slip back

And when the movements start spinning all around

Don’t be sure I’ll catch you when you’re falling down

Broken like thin glass pieces, just a figure in this old game

Closed eyes see through my lens

Got so many pictures that frame the way you held your end

At the top of the hour, left two at the table

At the drop of a hat, you’re seeming unable

To remember the words that I told you to read

When you’re down on your luck and down on your knees

Whatever way it goes, it’s a two-way road

And you’re flying out the window

Flying out the window

Just to let you know, if we’re letting go

I’m trying to reach you, trying to reach you

Got a better view, through with this black glass

Hold on while our heads slip back

And when the movements start spinning all around

Don’t be sure I’ll catch you when you’re falling down

Broken like thin glass pieces, just a figure in this old game

Closed eyes see through my lens

Got so many pictures that frame the way you held your end
