Only Words Lyrics

Only words

Music/Lyrics: De Van, Diztord, Randy Goodrum


laid my life, heart and soul, at your feet
like a sheep, to a shepherd
just found out, took the breath out of me
that promises are only words

they twist and turn
traced in the sand, carved into stone
they heal, they burn
some of them hurt clean to the bone
they're seen, they're said,
and when they're spoken,
they're heard
but, in the end, they're only words

raise your fist to a cold angry sky
shout 'em loud to distant mountains
sincere phrases, the con man's disguise
but, I'm on to you now

they twist and turn
traced in the sand, carved into stone
they heal, they burn
some of them hurt clean to the bone
they're seen, they're said,
and when they're spoken,
they're heard
but, in the end, they're only words

in your eyes, how you breathe
truth is in the spaces
in between all your words
I can smell and taste it
my heart knows it
while my brain hears only words

they twist and turn
traced in the sand, carved into stone
they heal, they burn
some of them hurt clean to the bone
they're seen, they're said,
and when they're spoken,
they're heard
but, in the end, they're only words
