Verse 1:
Hello world, it’s been a while
Since I last lay my tired eyes
On your secret lies
So well-disguised
In the beauty of your bright blue skies
Verse 2:
You hide your sadness
In a bucket full of madness
And in the mingle of the madness
No one sees their sadness
Bridge:
Tell me, how that is fair? How can I hold on?
How can I believe that to me those things belong
If in my heart it’s already lost
It’s already gone
Chorus:
You make me the sinner you make me the saint
You make me the angel with wings to fly
You tell me those stories you give me those lies
You dress them up pretty all in disguise
And then you watch me tumble
You watch me fall
You watch me stumble
I’m out of control
I plunge and a fall just to lose it all
Verse 3:
You give me the promise of having laughter
You speak of happiness and forever after
But I find your happiness too loud, too much
I doubt if it’s real or authentic as such
And when there’s a moment in a day
When you give me a smile
In hold onto that smile
Hoping that it would last a while
Bridge:
But to my dismay
You lead me astray
And the moment is lost
The moment is gone
And I realize that you would
Never have let it carry on
Verse 4:
Why is it that you need
All this sadness
This madness this heartache
Why leave beauty in the wake
Instead you want man to be sad
And no matter how hard we try
Just to get by
You always seem to find a way to say
Bridge:
That we are only clay in your hands
To be shaped to be formed
To slowly grow like a summer storm
Chorus:
You make me the sinner you make me the saint
You make me the angel with wings to fly
You tell me those stories you give me those lies
You dress them up pretty all in disguise
And then you watch me tumble
You watch me fall
You watch me stumble
I’m out of control
I plunge and a fall just to lose it all
Verse 5:
But what you do not know
Is that I love that summer storm grow
And as scared as what you want me to be
I have this desire in me
To ask lightning for a dance
As I may never get the chance
Again
Bridge:
To be this high nor this brave
Or feel power so strong
Despite it all, despite the fall
I know that in this world is where I belong
I plunge and I fall
Just to lose it all
But tomorrow I’ll get up again
I’ll once again stand tall…
