Sometimes Theres Honor In Revenge by Hail Your Highness Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2013

[Verse 1]
To a wishing well I told my secrets, it whispered back and told me nothing but lies
Then overflowed, betrayed my trust, showing all the world who I really was
I had to drink up all the water to salvage my own soul
It’s never what it is, it’s never what it is. It’s only what it can be made to look like

[Chorus]
Thank God vengeance is not mine
Open your eyes and see what I’ve done
I built your body and you’re holding on to it just a little too much for my taste
You’re wearing my name as your own
Time and time again I’ve traced this outline
Don’t make me test this design

[Verse 2]
Time, time is all your hands could take
Placed in front of a spotless setting you stood so implausible
False shades in your eyes delay all my movement
You’re putting me out of my mind, you feel you’ll fit inside
Void and stuck vacant. You ease into these bones
You know this makes me weak. My God I know I’ve got to leave, suffer me eyes
I’d wring a long lie down your neck and not worry about it. You’re so crooked and you’ve got knots in your brain
You lied, you cheated, lured me back and did it again
[Chorus]
Thank God vengeance is not mine
Open your eyes and see what I’ve done
I built your body and you’re holding on to it just a little too much for my taste
You’re wearing my name as your own
Time and time again I’ve traced this outline
Don’t make me test this design

[Outro]
You’re making waves. We shouldn’t be speaking of these things
Don’t reel me in. I’ve been lost here from your lack in my need
So I’ve cut the trees, it’s all I know. I’m building my home
If you return there’ll be no room. My mind’s locked inside (What’s mine is left mine)
