A Moment of Disguise Lyrics by Terence Etc.

Vortex

2022

[Verse 1]
I saw some raindrops fall from your eyes
That was a lovely moment of disguise
Well-meaning deception falling to our floor
I'm honored to be that subject in your court
But where is the truth and where are your hands?
Where lies that moment when our walls descend?
And we get painted green with fright
Envious of us in another life?
[Chorus]
And I hope that I am here to stay
Hope that we can get away
From the roles that we play
Hope that I can just
Dissolve resentment residue
I can clean up after you
Hope that we can find that clue
And have fun when we lose
Heal fast when we bruise
Trigger trauma, superglue
Sharp to bleed the chroma blue
Hope it leads my veins to you
Hope that you stay wide awake
Gliding in and out the wake
What's at stake for our sin?
'Cause it's all within
[Post-Chorus]
Our hurt, our sin
My loss, your win
Your love for him
It's all within
[Verse 2]
All of that time I had before
I used to dream about your wings and your sword
I don't have that time anymore
It's all in some goddess who ran away to his allure
Anyway, it's gone
And I won't have that time again
Not its numbers or its hands
It's fine, I'll breathe
My light and base
My time on it
You are a sun
But are you rising?
Or setting?
[Refrain]
No, I don't know
No, I don't know
[Chorus]
Know that I am here to stay
I know that we can get away
From the roles that we play
Know that we can just
Dissolve resentment residue
Thought I could clean up after you
I know that we just got a clue
But we have fun when we lose
Heal fast when we bruise
Trigger trauma, superglue
Sharp to bleed the chroma blue
I know it leads my veins to you
Know that you stay wide awake
Gliding in and out the wake
What's at stake for our sin?
'Cause it's all within
[Post-Chorus]
It's all within
My hurt, our sin
My loss, your win
Your love for him
It's all within
It's all within
[Outro]
Is there such a thing as too crunchy for a potato chip?
Papa won't spare me that leather
Mama had me, say let's go
(Mama save me, say let's go)
(Mama save me, say let's go)
Papa cannot hear the weather
Cannot smell the cloud, get full
(Mama know them clouds get full)
(Mama, yeah, she always know)
Say, mama, say (Say, mama, say)
Mama's voice come out like gold
Like dust ground down from precious stones
Mama knows she's not alone
Say, mama, say (Say, mama, say)
What mama say, it always go
Where she lead, I will follow
Said where she lead, I will follow
Papa found me cold and bitter
Waiting for the lights and show
(Mama, save me from this show)
(Mama, save me, say let's go)
Father don't have much to say
But when he do, it comes out gold
(But mama knows, yes, mama knows that)
(Gold don't warm the night that's cold)
Father your fantasies
Loved me well and held my notes
(Mama did not know your notes)
(You know mama's love will fade on, bro)
And the secret sin that persists within
Expectations resist and then insists that
(Mama, like, I'm tryna go)
(Mama 'bout to dip on, bro)
M head found these lessons hard at first
But a soft behind is not the worst, it's not the worst
Say, mama, say (Say, mama, say)
Mama say, "Just bend over"
Papa say, "Don't bend over"
Mama looked and said, "Let's go"
