Lies That Bind

Do you think of me when you hold her?
When the night is still above
When the only sounds for miles around are your heartbeat and your love?
Is the silence disturbed by whispers of promises breathed a thousand times?
Have some mercy on me
Set me free
Free from the lies that bind
When you said you’d never leave me
How could I understand
It would only be your memory that lasted till the end?
That I could lose my faith in heaven and not this ache inside?
Have some mercy on me
Set me free
Free from the lies that bind
And as you hold her do you wonder if you mean the things you say?
Or does she realize when times are hard you always walk away?
Your voice still lives inside my head though I’ve prayed for it to die
Have some mercy on me
Set me free
Free from the lies that bind
