  • In your brilliance, you became the only voice you trust

    If it's true then I'm dead, right where I stand
    Was the plan always this vicious
    You thought that your faith would carry you home
    But it left me there in the waiting room alone
    As I planned what to say, to the ones I'd be leaving
    All praise and honor seem so far away
    I never saw this coming you can lose what you found
    And here comes the breakdown

    Careful, careful watch your mouth
    You're talking like your such the innocent (accidents, accidents are we all?)
    These words will be the death of you
    This I swear this I know
    The blame will find your hands
    The blame has found these hands

    It's hard to live this, to know if I mean it
    To let you know you have me, that I never can forget it
    And these last words I say here
    Are the last words that I will share (last words that I will share)
    So God I'm asking you do you even care

    My hands are shaking and they won't stop, as the world becomes a hospital room
    I am not the one to ever disappear, but it's over now (over now)
    Say it for the last time, one last time
    I want to let go of this world for you

    Careful, careful watch your mouth
    You're talking like your such the innocent (accidents, accidents are we all?)
    These words will be the death of you
    This I swear this I know
    The blame will find your hands
    The blame has found these hands

    Hands held toward the sky
    In the cool air of October
    The whispers were always there
    But they never caught up to your words
    So will December find me all alone

    The wishful face of the believer
    Hope, but there is doubt that bleeds through
    Still, I am arrested by your presence
    Nothing will compare to you Writer/s: JERMAINE STEWART, ROY ANTHONY CARTER
