Gift Horse Mouth - Never Be Strong Lyrics
The rain-soaked streets do not appear
To long for me.
And secretly I know you re near,
Subliminally.
Another hope appears to lure me there.
Tap the mic, electric hum, a luminescent glare.
For all the things that you witnessed,
You never uttered a sound,
You could have destroyed me so easily,
But you never did let me down.
It s easier to tell, get it all off your chest,
But telling was never your aim.
You became strong through your silence,
I ll never be strong through my shame.
I lost my key, these crimson hands,
The water spurred.
It took from me my one patsy,
And spread the word.
Now all is lost, I m tranquillised,
I moved my hand across your thighs,
I could give myself to you,
But I swear you would leave.
And how am I supposed to forget the past,
When it s there like a mirror? Shatter the glass?
And it s you I deceived.
For all the things that you witnessed,
You never uttered a sound,
You could have destroyed me so easily,
But you never did let me down. (Shame).
It s easier to tell, get it all off your chest,
But telling was never your aim.
You became strong through your silence,
I ll never be strong through my shame.
Guilt s tearing me apart, it s burning in my heart,
It s tearing me apart.
Shame,
I m sorry, forgive me, believe me, forgive me,
Believe me, I m sorry, forgive me, I m sorry,
I m sorry, forgive me, believe me, forgive me,
Believe me, I m sorry, forgive me, I m sorry,
I m sorry, I m sorry, I m sorry, I m sorry,
I m sorry, I m sorry, I m sorry, I m sorry.
For all the things that you witnessed, (Believe me, I m sorry,)
You never uttered a sound, (Forgive me, I m sorry,)
You could have destroyed me so easily, (Believe me, I m sorry,)
But you never did let me down. (Shame).
It s easier to tell, get it all off your chest, (Believe me, I m sorry,)
But telling was never your aim. (Forgive me, I m sorry,)
You became strong through your silence, (Believe me, I m sorry,)
I ll never be strong through my shame.
