Statues by Tides of Man Lyrics
[Verse]
What have you done
To justify the demand of our deference
Only time will spoil
Your inflated statue of yourself
You've been underwhelmed
[Chorus]
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under my thumb
I've been growing patient, dear
I'll wait for you, my love
Where you can't run
[Verse]
You take so much pride in knowing
That you've misled someone else
You can't match your smile
When you've fulfilled the great deception
They've been overwhelmed
[Chorus]
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under my thumb
I've been growing patient, dear
I'll wait for you, my love
Where you can't run from me
[Bridge]
I will smother your needs
Forget the fiction of what
You thought we could never be
I'll follow you if you won't follow me
[Chorus]
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under my thumb
I've been growing patient, dear
I'll wait for you, my love
Where you can't run
What have you done
To justify the demand of our deference
Only time will spoil
Your inflated statue of yourself
You've been underwhelmed
[Chorus]
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under my thumb
I've been growing patient, dear
I'll wait for you, my love
Where you can't run
[Verse]
You take so much pride in knowing
That you've misled someone else
You can't match your smile
When you've fulfilled the great deception
They've been overwhelmed
[Chorus]
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under my thumb
I've been growing patient, dear
I'll wait for you, my love
Where you can't run from me
[Bridge]
I will smother your needs
Forget the fiction of what
You thought we could never be
I'll follow you if you won't follow me
[Chorus]
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under my thumb
I've been growing patient, dear
I'll wait for you, my love
Where you can't run
