Voxtrot - Soft & Warm lyrics

Everyone loves a man, who lets the hardest people build him up and cut him down to lovable size And somebody holds a candle, by right it tastes all longing Words are remembered: us and them, you love, you despise I've seen the years go by in triple lines of gray Oh, you were always on the ground You're always on the ground If I could catch you, I would hold you for a day Oh, won't you do this when you can Do what you can I've seen the hardest people soften in the spotlight Won't you stop and breathe, tell me what you want to feel I could draw on all these things, baby I feel this beauty pull me to a Soft and warm, I know this all I need, why don't we learn to grieve Baby I'd leave you for the person you used to be Everyone has a secret, so bite your mother tongue And let the truth bleed over you, you wolf in sheep-skin You can never describe the future, but you can paint the past In shades of blue, or money used with neumonic charm God, shake this sickness, won't this decade ever end? Oh, it's be going on for years Been happening for years Can't face the truth, why can't things just be begin Because they always end in tears They always end in tears I've seen the hardest people soften in the spotlight Won't you stop and breathe, tell me what you want to feel I could draw on all these things, baby I feel this beauty pull me to a Soft and warm, I know this all I need, why don't we learn to grieve Baby I'd leave you for the person you used to be You are so young, so feel alive And one day you will live on your own
