Treason Lyrics by Pioneer

Pioneer

2012

Speak to me
I'm waiting for your words to light me up
It took me years
To get where I'm at right now
And I don't want to mess it up

I can't go back there again
And commit myself to treason
Against my innocence
Turning to stone
Staring out the window
And left here all alone

I should feel bad
But I can't stop laughing
He gave it up
Now it's mine for the taking
I should sleep but I can't stop waking
Telling myself that

Love is what it takes to do
What we've been up to
Breaking from the darkness
Love is what it takes to do
What we've been up to
Whoa

Leave the pain
I want to take in everything
And feel the sting
Of something deeper
Than my fear of being hurt

When it gets lost in the end
A picture-perfect finish to my insignificance
Cut to the bone
I had it coming for a long time
This you've known

And every word
I lifted up in my defense
You tore them down
And said

Love is what it takes to do
What we've been up to
Breaking from the darkness
Love is what it takes to do
What we've been up to
Whoa

I've got a few things to say
I need to get off, get off
My chest so I can breathe again


I've got a few things to say
I need to get off, get off
My chest so I can breathe again

You are the only one
You are the only one
I need to get off, get off
I need to get off

Get off, get off my chest
So I can breathe again
Get off, get off my chest
So I can breathe again

And every word
I lifted up in my defense
You tore them down
And said

Love is what it takes to do
What we've been up to
Breaking from the darkness
Love is what it takes to do
What we've been up to
Whoa Whoa
