letra de without one word - rick elias

there’s a house where prisoners worship
where honest men confess
i admitted i was a thief
to the darkness in my chest
i admitted to the thrill
of the k!lling that i’d done
it was funny, man, it was tragic
the kind of person i’d become

i would help you up a ladder
to watch you dangle from a rope
and i would shine a light upon you
to make you see a ray of hope
i’d scratch and kick the love you give
watch it bleed and lie down hurt
then i’d change my mind and kiss you
and say it all without one word

my heart had become a callous
big as a fist and hard as steel
like a thousand souls before me
i met my man, i made my deal
when i thought about it, i’d laugh and cry
’til my eyes were swollen shut
it was funny, man, it was tragic
the kind of person i’d become
i would help you up a ladder
to watch you dangle from a rope
and i would shine a light upon you
to make you see a ray of hope
i’d scratch and kick the love you give
watch it bleed and lie down hurt
then i’d change my mind and kiss you
and say it all without one word

oh…

in a house where prisoners worship
a heart beats scared to death
i got down on my knees
and claimed my innocence under my breath
i knelt there in betrayal
i put my temple to the gun
i felt my finger twitch
then it was over, man, it was

i would help you up a ladder
and watch you dangle from a rope
and i would shine a light upon you
to make you see a ray of hope
i’d scratch and kick the love you give
watch it bleed and lie down hurt
then i’d change my mind and kiss you
and say it all without one word
i said it all without one word
oh…
oh, i’m sorry, oh…
