Temptation Lyrics by Whether, I

Dreamcatcher - EP

2014

I know I've seen where this path leads too many times before
You've caught my gaze, but my eyes drift back for more
I'm stuck still stumbling back and forth
But I find myself still searching with one foot out the door
My mind betrays what I'm looking for

I've stretched the lines and pushed the marks
When did boundaries become a start
When did boundaries become a start

Muddling truth among the lies
Mirroring faces that I despise
Fear to fight for what I feel
Tending to wounds that never heal

If you take away the walls that I hide behind
Beneath the mask, the man behind the mind
A shattered soul fresh to pick apart
To vultures who seek an open heart

These tattered dreams become an art
Mending the pieces that fell apart
Gracefully fall into place
Onto a canvas that cannot be erased

Words always seem to find a way, they're nothing but lies
A crowded room full of broken thoughts and misleading signs
Temptation gets the best of us no matter how hard we try
So all we can do is make the best of it, with our heads held high

We are nothing but common thieves
Stealing the hearts of the innocent we meet
But who's to blame when they leave themselves defenseless
To a silver tongue stranger, speaking with subtle offenses

I can feel the sting of my remorse
As regret seeps into me
Why must I be so weak
Victim to the words I speak

Words always seem to find a way, they're nothing but lies
A crowded room full of broken thoughts and misleading signs
Temptation gets the best of us no matter how hard we try
So all we can do is make the best of it, with our heads held high

Do I want these choices to define me
Or can I find a way back to myself

I can't remember a time when I still held my pride
It's been so long since I've felt the light behind my eyes

Words always seem to find a way, they're nothing but lies
A crowded room full of broken thoughts and misleading signs
Temptation gets the best of us no matter how hard we try
So all we can do is make the best of it, with our heads held high
