Arm's Length

Rose Cora Perry

V1: What a lovely dream before it fell apart All those lovely things you said would break my heart And I was wrong, you were right Can't separate the truth from all your pretty lies Chorus: Away I go into the darkness Away I go I turn from all this Cannot cope with love and madness Away I go so I don't tell you to go V2: What a lovely speech, you rehearsed it so well What a lovely act with your show and tell I thought I knew who you really were But when the curtains fell what had seemed so real disappeared Chorus: You left me crumbling in the darkness I had to turn away from all this Pretend I'm strong and that you're worthless Away I go so I don't tell you to go Outro: Just like before I fell I knew deep down inside Somehow you knew exactly what key to turn on my insides Just like before I fell I knew it'd fall apart Maybe I love just to love and earn a broken heart Copyright 2016 R.
