Before I Turn
Shattered Moon
[Verse 1: Alex Anglis]
They will take you far from me
For now I bare the blame
And he sits and stares with eyes of lust
Now carving out your name
I've taken blood away from you
Now dwelling far above
So I think of how your grin will change
I don't deserve your love
[Pre-Chorus: Alex Anglis]
I'm so sick of the fucking illusion that we keep
We're lost at the steeple
Love washes the pain of instant despair
Trek through perilous waters to face coldness and death
The cries of the peasants
Linger and wallow and flow through the air
Hold on to the love that we share
[Chorus: Alex Anglis]
I see the look on your face, so we have to get
Far away, far away from the rest of it
A shattered moon guides the way to a paradise
That will cleanse all the pain that we've sacrificed
[Verse 2: Courtney LaPlante]
I surrender to myself
And apprehensiveness
Darkness lingers like a cloud
That dwells inside my chest
It's like a feeling of hanging wrapped around my neck
Suspending me above
And I can't look at you the way that I did
Because I don't deserve your love
[Pre-Chorus: Courtney LaPlante]
I'm so sick of the feeling that my love is a fake
It's all thanks to fictitiousness
And the thought that we're forged to loathe
[Chorus: Alex Anglis & Courtney LaPlante]
I see the look on your face, so we have to get
Far away, far away from the rest of it
A shattered moon guides the way to a paradise
That will cleanse all the pain that we've sacrificed
[Bridge: Alex Anglis]
I feel them watching with eyes of disdain
I feel lamenting from blood that was stained
[Outro: Alex Anglis]
I saw your smiling, your hopes were filled with dreams
But now we have decided it's better to leave
I'm not much for faith, but now I scream
To heaven above, I don't deserve your love
To heaven above, I don't deserve your love
To heaven above, I don't deserve your love
To heaven above, I don't deserve your love
To heaven above, I don't deserve your love
To heaven above, I don't deserve your love
