Dead is When You Can’t Let it Go Lyrics by Criss Jami

2011

Trust is a deal, it must be bought
And when traded for lies it's forever gone
A rebel won't know a rebel
Until he knows his cloning's inevitable
'Cause the mind is a lonesome place
You never really see another face
By law of the unknown
There's nothing here you can really own
And when it's dead is when you can't let it go
This you need to know
And when it's dead it's hardest to let go
Baby this you need to know
Words are plagues, words are gifts, silver bullets to poison hearts
Words are curses they're blessings, wooden stakes and battles we've fought
Strength's a mindset and purity's a game
It's a game we'll play day after day
'Cause the lust is in the heart
And the sin's already marked
You'll smile and cry out your passion
Just to tease, to see what will happen
And when it's dead is when you can't let it go
This you need to know
And when it's dead it's hardest to let go
Baby this you need to know
We're silenced by fear of rejection
When we want it the most to show affection
Some play the fool others play the carpenter
And in the eyes of shame it falls harder
A carpenter like Jesus, but missing the righteous, or too much
Humility shattered to pieces, a loving crisis, and too much
And when it's dead is when you can't let it go
This you need to know
And when it's dead it's hardest to let go
Baby this you need to know
