The Little Things That Give You Away

The night gave you a songA light had been turned onYou walked out in the worldLike you belong thereAs easy as a breezeEach heart was yours to pleaseIs it only me who seesThere's something wrong thereI'm not a ghost nowI can see youYou need to see meIt's the little things that give you awayThe words you cannot sayYour big mouth in the wayIt's the little things that tease and betrayAs the hunted I become the preyIt's the little thingsThe little things that give you awayI saw you on the stairsYou didn't notice I was thereThat's ‘cause you were talking at meAnd not to meYou were high above the stormA hurricane being bornWhat is freedomIt might cost you your libertyIt's the little things that give you awayThe words you cannot sayYour big mouth in the wayIt's the little things that tease and betrayAs the hunted I become the preyIt's the little thingsThe little things that give you awaySometimesI can't believe my existenceSee myself on a distanceI can't get back insideSometimesThe air is so anxiousAll my thoughts are so recklessAnd all of my innocence has diedSometimesI wake at four in the morningWhere all the darkness is swarmingAnd it covers me in fearSometimesSometimesSometimesSometimesI'm full of anger and grievingSo far away from believingThat any song will reappearSometimesThe end is not comingIt's not comingThe end is hereSometimesSometimesSometimesSometimesSometimesSometimesWhen the paintings are shadowsAnd you're the only that mattersAnd I can see you through the tearsSometimesThe end is not comingIt's not comingThe end is hereSometimes
