about

This is the final version, The Rapids version with second verse lyrics written and sung by the inestimable, Tara Hope.

lyrics

Another night, inside of town
I see the lights go up as the sun goes down.
A silent shrug, a quiet sigh,
another change and a lonely alibi.

The moving through the dark
the walking round the house
looking for the spark,
I'll never find the cause.
The sinking of my heart
the moonlight on the floor
the sound of the porch swing and the closing of the door.

Do you not feel this anymore she said and met my eyes.
Or would you let the whole thing fade away without a fight.

Never keep your heart held afloat by sighs,
the changing of your past with your empty alibis.
Never keep your heart held afloat by lies.
The changing of your past with your empty alibis.

Another day, crawling by,
minutes pass like hours when they used they fly.
You're gone again, a silent tear.
Should be used to it by now that you're not here.

Creeping in the night
like I don't know you're there.
Staying out of sight, retreating down the stairs.
The breaking of my heart
Can't take it anymore.
The fading footsteps and the slamming of the door.

Do you not feel this anymore she said and met my eyes.
Or would you let the whole thing fade away without a fight.

Never keep your heart held afloat by sighs,
the changing of your past with your empty alibis.
Never keep your heart held afloat by lies.
The changing of your past with your empty alibis.
Never keep your heart held afloat by lies.
The changing of your past with your empty alibis.
Oh you think you're smart, I can see it in your eyes,
You're tearing us apart with your empty alibis.
