The Serotones - Silver lyrics

I've been on the left side of my right mind Searching for the right time to tell you I'm done When your house of cards comes crashing down I won't be around to slam the door and walk out So keep your salty cheeks And the sides of you I have to meet Close to that chest filled with the scars That somehow make their home on my heart Oh she's a silver-tongued, hot-blooded devil With her eyes sewn shut, to anything but trouble Left with the taste of silver in my mouth She's still holding my breath down Left with the taste of silver in my mouth She's still holding my breath down And the big rig oil spill in the ocean of my thoughts Has led me to believe that something went wrong And I can't help thinking it was all my fault Because you couldn't help thinking what I thought Pulled the pillow from under my head in the middle of the night An act in the shadows behind my line of sight You said take off your coat and leave it here Little did I know it would be gone in a year Oh she's a silver-tongued, hot-blooded devil With her eyes sewn shut, to anything but trouble Left with the taste of silver in my mouth She's still holding my breath down Left with the taste of silver in my mouth She's still holding my breath down That face can't lie You've got the World on fire In your mind And that's the trick She's behind your back and scratching it With her razor sharp dagger Left with the taste of silver in my mouth She's still holding my breath down Left with the taste of silver in my mouth She's still holding my breath down
