Tender moments are a test to step Lively through this dark divide Falling over ourselves, I kiss the ground 'till the pain subsides Staggering and stammered are these words, Do we so speak loud enough to make sure we're heard? The truth and the meaning are corrupt and deceiving from spite And we've yet to determine who's right [Chorus] I'm trying - Screaming at the walls she's crying! The tainted wings of a saint are hard to mend Under the veil of this evening's pretense Exact you bitterness and lay me out On your bed of nails Because the harder we try and the harder we push Is the way that we fail I've opened up my veins of thruth to you Strafe the scars and the pain, now they're cut like new Your trust is wanning Caught in the rain and the blood is streaming [Chorus]
