Sell Your Alibi
You were my bird, you taught me to sing
But I always knew that you'd stretch your wings.
Now that you're gone, it's hard to believe
If given the chance, would you fly back to me?
In awe, I watch while the sky burns like fire,
Before it says goodnight.
Caught in this permanent reprise,
Where all we do is say goodbye.
Reliving every breath, recalling every line,
Before you sell your alibi
You were my song, yeah you were my inspiration.
I heard it in a dream till I woke up
Then you were gone. There was a mannequin your place,
How could every frame turn so unreal?
With words so quiet like beckoning silence that change the tide.
Caught in this permanent reprise,
Where all we do is say goodbye.
Reliving every breath, recalling every line,
Before you sell your alibi
I wait and watch while my world turns expired, and we become
Caught in this permanent reprise,
Where all we do is say goodbye.
Reliving every breath, recalling every time,
Before you sell
Woah
Woah
Reliving every breath, recalling every time,
Before you sell your alibi
You were my bird, you taught me to sing
But I always knew that you'd stretch your wings.
