Ellis Paul - Deliver Me lyrics

She can turn a room round on a dime Part a crowd like the Red Sea She's Moses And stranger's eyes All fall and rise On her length Like they're sizing up roses Delivery? she could deliver me She broke her own commandment Thou shall not steal from me My breath is gone That's burglary Never trust a prophet In a party dress I'm here waiting on a train There are things that I can't explain Like how I got tied to the tracks And why love goes down Like some robbery Deliver me Deliver me There's a punchline on the sidewalk But the joke seems kind of cruel It's the ones your friends aren't telling That makes you look the fool So you step out into traffic Cause it's safer on the street You react to perfect strangers As if the world's complete It's when you are anonymous You can pull the wool over all of us But when you lean Don't fall on us Broken more or less Have you ever been ashamed Have you ever been defeated Crying, calling out her name Like love can never be repeated The whole worlds bringing you down For a million different reasons It's just the end of one more season Where love came to run you down
