Lyrics Sooner - Thomston

Sooner

You made me swear on your life
But I still had to lie
'Cause you know, and I know
The truth would’ve killed you sooner
All the times that I caused you to cry
Are painted so vivid on the back of my eyes
And they keep me awake in the night
I want to sleep through it
You’re the hum of an airplane
There to remind me
That everything is up in the air
But baby, I’m gonna let you down
Later or sooner
We’re acting like we’re in our teens
Where time is a right, not a luxury
And we are living with wool on our faces
To keep out the moonlight
So when you said you wanted to die
Did you mean right now or further down the line?
And I don’t know how to change your mind
Away from the sooner
You can stand on my shoulders 'til we’re grey and old
And the world is a little more fair
But baby, I have to let you down
Later or sooner
