Momentary Lapse Lyrics by Guards

Modern Hymns

2019

Yes, you need me to lie‚ it's a God given truth
Over and under we jump through the hoops
Well‚ you're not the only one
Ever to come undone

Piercing my should with the nod of your head
No‚ it couldn't be black needed pink with the red
And now that you're on a tear
The whole things a dull affair

And if you're thinking that it's going to last
Well, I promise you it too shall pass
Yeah, if you feel like it's just a ploy
Some empty thing to fill the void

It's a momentary‚ momentary
Momentary, momentary lapse

I love the get back clothes you wear
I love the fact you just don't care
Now we're riding in the sun
Watching it burn for fun

Yeah, I knew
So did you
Now you're standing ten feet tall
The rise is before the fall

And if you're thinking that it's gonna last
Well‚ I promise you it too shall pass
Yeah, if you feel like it's in decline
The whole wide world is borderline

It's a momentary, momentary
Momentary, momentary lapse

Now I pass you on the street
Somewhere you got to be
Pleasantly on your phone
Don't forget that don't mean that you're not alone

Yeah, I knew
So did you
It happens to everyone
No, we're not the only ones

And if you're thinking that it's gonna last
Well I promise you it too shall pass
I know you feel like it's such a crime
Well I'm holding on to what is mine

It's a momentary, momentary
Momentary, momentary lapse

At least I have to believe
I just have to believe
I just have to I just have to
I just have to believe
