Lyrics Alibi - Set for the Sky

Alibi

Because I don’t fit into one of your
Labelled shiny boxes
Have me flat packed, sent away
Stuck in my head like a hostage
They smile and they say
«You're never gonna ever leave this cage»
It’s not my age by which you gauge
Every peaceful soul is stained by rage
Control yourself, all the fury and the dread
As if anyone would ever let me forget it
Make yourself a quiet space where you can stop and meditate
I don’t know why I met you but I’m starting to regret it
Where the fuck do you get off
Telling me what to -do- you even understand it
You’re probably right but now you’ve ruined your chance
It’s not quite what you say it’s how you said it
Climb up your tower again
Don’t fall down, there’s no one to save you
I can feel the struggle begin
Keep your mouth shut or it will eat you
We don’t know how important you are
That doesn’t mean that you should tell us
Let go, all I see is violence in your
Eyes as you drag us down
I’d love to help but we’re out of time
We’ve got to leave, I need to breathe
Every minute you waste of your alibi
Is coming right back to bite you
You tell me that you’re innocent
You sing it like a work song
You strike me as malevolent
I never get these things wrong
Sitting in the dark on my own
What a mess again
But the truth is I’m a solid ten
Climb up your tower again
Don’t fall down, there’s no one to save you
I can feel the struggle begin
Keep your mouth shut or it will eat you
We don’t know how important you are
That doesn’t mean that you should tell us
Go, let it go, all I see is violence in your
Eyes as you drag us down
Because they don’t ever listen
Even when the truth is given
All they believe are the facts
And the facts are my admission
He smiles as he says
«You're never gonna ever leave this cage»
It’s not my age by which you gauge
Every peaceful soul is stained by rage
New demons, I can’t face them all
Don’t let go, catch me as I fall apart
Take me to the grave
This soul is stained by rage
New demons, I can’t face them all
Don’t let go, catch me as I fall apart
Take me to the grave
Every peaceful soul is stained by rage
Climb up your tower again
Don’t fall down, there’s no one to save you
I can feel the struggle begin
They don’t ever listen
Even when the truth is given
All they believe are the facts
And the facts are my admission
He smiles as he says
«You're never gonna ever leave this cage»
It’s not my age by which you gauge
Every peaceful soul is stained by rage
