[00:11.26]Who wrote those lines on the wall
[00:18.16]Let's retrace where they scrawled ancient characters
[00:27.50]It's 2:00 and your sister's slip it falls
[00:35.59]And the afternoon crawls across the room and tackles her
[00:43.87]I don't think that you would sink that ship that's only passing through
[00:52.22]Cause I don't believe that you might be a murderess
[01:01.10]But I saw inside each small dark eye as it was turning blue
[01:07.22]
[01:10.41]All the strength inside to do just what the captain says and hang the rest
[01:18.17]
[01:20.64]Moved by the rhyme in the psalm
[01:27.47]We agreed that it was wrong and to believe in it
[01:35.32]
[01:37.75]Ooh swooned the wall all night long
[01:44.87]But a lie's a lie no matter what guy's breath's in it
[01:53.00]I don't know that I would go that far down some dark avenue
[02:01.36]With a whispering crew of shadows all protecting it
[02:09.00]
[02:10.13]But I saw inside each small white lie as it was turning true
[02:19.16]The ability to do all things expected of it
[02:24.03]
[02:50.42]I don't think that you would sink that ship that's only passing through
[02:58.87]Cause I don't believe that you might be a piratess
[03:03.53]Did you hide inside inside each small white lie before it turned it's true
[03:14.84]The ability to do what things the captain says
[03:23.92]Oh murderess in the wilderness
[03:28.23]With your victims all around you
[03:32.54]Their combined love forms a pool your knife's reflected in
[03:41.29]And now I'm ready too with my throat to you
[03:45.48]On this mountain By this moon
[03:50.05]What I want the most to do is prove I'm not like them
