Mirrors & Smoke歌词

Album: Good Monsters
Jars Of Clay- Mirrors & Smoke

I'm feeling older than my years
I'm feeling pain inside my chest

It's love that keeps me silent
It's my silence that you detest

Rivers flow into the oceans

And oceans never fill

I want to kiss your lips, but I know I never will

Love's a hard decision to risk impending choke

But love will keep you wishing
And my heart will keep me broke

I blew flowers, gave you candy to even out the guilt

I sent you greeting cards with messages that I could never write

Rivers flow into the oceans
And oceans never fill

I want to let you know me
But I know I never will

Love's a contradiction
Many mirrors and smoke

Love will keep you wishing
My heart makes me broke

You will always want me
And I'll always want to leave

Even though I cut your wounds
You still deny they're real

Rivers flow into the ocean

Oceans never fill

I want to lay my life down
But I know you never will

Love's a strange condition
With all the doubts it can invoke

Your love keeps me wishing

And my heart keeps me broke

Baby, don't you cry, 'cause I got it all figured out

You always make me sad
But that's what true love is all about

Rivers never fill the oceans
But oceans always feel

The waters reaching deep inside them
I guess they always will

Love's a constant mission to a world you never spoke

Love, it keeps you wishing
My heart, it keeps me broke

Love's a constant mission to a world you never spoke

Love, it keeps you wishing
My heart, it makes me broke
