Midwest Kings - Vera Lyrics
I sold you outI made amendsI made you trust in me againWe found our peace between the broken endsYou took the keysYou swallowed themYou said you’d never feel againThe lock you opened in oblivionIf you want me to wait, I’ll waitIf you want me to break whatever needs to breakLine up your chainsIf you want me to hear, I’ll listen to every word you sayVera, it’s been three years since the dayThe fire rained down on your paradeYou left us all and I can’t help but feel a bit betrayedYour wounds are singing my disdainIt’s better off this wayThree years since the dayYou made a pactYou dropped the actYou focused on what you could attractThe fights uphill they helped to separateYou dropped the can and struck the matchThe blaze you could not soon detachThe burning bride you tried to imitateIf you want me to stay, I’ll stayIf you want me to take you from this life you hate,I’ll face the painIf you want me to steer, displacedHand me both your reignsVera, it’s been three years since the dayThe fire rained down on your paradeYou left us all and I can’t help but feel a bit betrayedYour wounds are singing my disdainIt’s better off this wayThree years since the dayAll the nights you used to fearAll the song you’ll never hear(Since the day)All the days becoming clearAll the life you’ll never be hereThe fire rained down on your paradeYou left us all and I can’t help but feel a bit betrayedYour wounds are singing my disdainIt’s better off this wayThree years since the day(The fire)Since the day(The fire)All the nights you used to fearAll the song you’ll never hearAll the days becoming clearAll the life you’ll never be here
