False Starts Lyrics by Cardioid

Fantasy Metal

2020

[Verse 1]
I licked your lips when you were cold
You drank my tears when I would hide
How could I deserve a beautiful one
When she gave me nothing to lean on
My fists were stiff, white-knuckled high
Being torn between bedpost and life
I’m gonna give you this like it's the first time
And the last
How
Oh how
I have to stop to ask myself now
Why can I not change?
[Chorus]
Make me marathon to the theatre in your bones
Turn your cheek so effortlessly cold
Cut me free with fеw words
Fight with hearts undone
Turn your face to this еverlasting love
[Verse 2]
A single day remains a lasting one
And if I ever forget it
I’ll open up my chest and say
Look what you’ve given me
And now we’re here
Deciding dear
Will this love be our knife
[Chorus]
Make me marathon to the theatre in your bones
Turn your cheek so effortlessly cold
Cut me free with few words
Fight with hearts undone
Turn your face to this sweet
Everlasting flavour
I’m coming to your rescue baby
[Bridge]
Harvest me my love
Make me move the moon
Gather petals and weeds
Take them all and swoon
Gimme one more time to coo you
To breathe in the air that surrounds you
All I want is a chain reaction
To spill my brains from all the chaos of attraction
To you
[Chorus]
Make me marathon to the theatre in your bones
Turn your face to this sweet
Everlasting flavour
I’m coming to your rescue baby
