Sacred Treasure
Intro]
The words ‘I love you’
won’t always ring true,
for words can be so deceitfully spoken.
[Verse]
Little white lies,
Little white lies
like a malevolent tide,
Malevolent tide.
Can wash away trust,
leaving promises broken.
Promises broken.
[Bridge]
Little white lies,
can wash away trust,
leaving promises broken
Little white lies,
like a malevolent tide,
can wash away trust,
leaving promises broken.
promises broken.
[Interlude]
Selling out for the shameful promise,
that he would put a wedding ring on her
finger.
The immortal words “I will love you forever”,
oh, how that memory lingers.
[Bridge]
Laying on her bed,
bright lights streaming in,
Unveiling her protective curtain
Knowing that past this point,
there is no way back for certain.
[Verse]
Little white lies,
like a malevolent tide,
can wash away trust,
leaving promises broken
Promises broken.
[Bridge]
A delicate flower bursts open,
where the seeds of life are brewing
The previously dark, and mysterious place,
where innocence now lay in ruins.
