Songtext The noose Emery

The noose

I lost my virginity when I knew there was nothing to lose
The scales tipped in front of me when I knew there was nothing to choose
Your words have stuck with me like a bass player singing the blues
But that's enough about me, I'm sure you'd like to tighten the noose

[?] the fire, let the wood burn away
Never cared because you won't have to stay
I'm tired, I'm tired of the blame
That only [?] the words you say

[?]
[?] turn into [?]
[?]
[?] in the blood of [?]

Your words are deafening
The curses [?]
[?] judgment coming soon
A bride without a groom

We all will worship a God
The "Am that I Am"
Or made of our thoughts
The hope of this life seduces us all
To hold real truth and resist the fall
The shepherd once whispered to me
God isn't what you think
Water made alive that will quench your thirst
But you will never drink

Fall in love with the pain
(We fall)
Fall in love with the pain
(We fall)
Fall in love with the pain
(We fall)
Fall in love with the pain

We fall in love with certainty
Cursing our flesh but not ourselves for these mirrored lives we lead

I felt dishonest but I knew what it would take
(A voice I didn't have)
A heart that was strong and brave
So I took what I could
The praise and the purse
But right behind my eyes was the curse

Fall in love with the pain
(We fall)
Fall in love with the pain
(We fall)
Fall in love with the pain
(We fall)
Fall in love with the pain
The shepherd once whispered to me
God isn't what you think
Water made alive that will quench your thirst
But you will never drink

Everyone fears what they wanted to see
[?] danger [?] to break free
Hope sometimes feels like hell
(I saw) on the side of the road
(A payphone) in the streetlight glow
I wanted to call you, tell you everything
