Dirt by Ellevator Lyrics
I don’t feel guilty anymore
My conscience has decided to free me and end this war
But even when those thoughts are through and I’m lying skin to skin with you
There are too many piles of dirt to sweep under the rug
And not enough rugs to sweep them under
There’s nowhere for this dirt to hide
No space for all this hurt to die
And even if we kept it out of sight
We are too full of light
No fabric could cover such a lie
I can’t believe the pain was real
I fought for my conviction and refusеd to heal
But even whеn those nights turned into day
Our bodies still ablaze
The covers would pull us under
There’s nowhere for this dirt to hide
No space for all this hurt to die
And even if we kept it out of sight
We are too full of light
No fabric could cover such a lie
Was there something I should’ve done
Something I should’ve said
Now everything is dust
Everything is dust
Somewhere we had been
Somewhere once before
The tree where we hid is hiding us once more
There’s nowhere for this dirt to hide
No space for all this hurt to die
And even if we kept it out of sight
We are too full of light
No fabric could cover such a lie
My conscience has decided to free me and end this war
But even when those thoughts are through and I’m lying skin to skin with you
There are too many piles of dirt to sweep under the rug
And not enough rugs to sweep them under
There’s nowhere for this dirt to hide
No space for all this hurt to die
And even if we kept it out of sight
We are too full of light
No fabric could cover such a lie
I can’t believe the pain was real
I fought for my conviction and refusеd to heal
But even whеn those nights turned into day
Our bodies still ablaze
The covers would pull us under
There’s nowhere for this dirt to hide
No space for all this hurt to die
And even if we kept it out of sight
We are too full of light
No fabric could cover such a lie
Was there something I should’ve done
Something I should’ve said
Now everything is dust
Everything is dust
Somewhere we had been
Somewhere once before
The tree where we hid is hiding us once more
There’s nowhere for this dirt to hide
No space for all this hurt to die
And even if we kept it out of sight
We are too full of light
No fabric could cover such a lie
