Sooty Shearwater

Sunsets and Silk

I gave my heart for you to keep
Is it save and sound
Is it save and sound

I hear you sell it on the cheap
When I'm not around
When I'm not around

I can't help feeling
that I'm nothing more
than a tiny speck on your tapestry

It's no wonder that that thought is
just chipping away at my sanity

And I bought the web of lies you build
With promises of sunsets and silk


I wake at odd times in the night
Did you call my name
Did you call my name

I think of all the tears you cried
Was it just a game
Was it just a game

I can't help feeling
You took every flaw
Feeding on my insecurity

Now I wonder
If it's all just a testament to my fallacy

Now I think that it's time
Time to make up my mind
And I might make my escape

I gave my heart for you to keep
Is it save and sound
Is it save and sound
