How Can You Say That — текст песни (Edwin Mccain)

The air that you breathe it must be poison
And you`re dressed up in your best disguise
I don`t want to hear what you have to say
It`s there in your eyes when you look away
These beautiful words are turning into lies

Chorus:
How can you say that to me

The light that still shines is just an illusion
Just a memory from a burned out star
Its promise has come from so far away
It`s fighting through sadness and years of decay
And it`s a wonder it ever made it this far

(Chorus)

After all of those secrets you let me believe
There`s no rose petal air, there`s just thorns when I breathe
How can you say that

It`s not this silence that screams in my mind
Each day I feel like I`m falling behind
Living in shadows, still getting burned
When will I ever learn

(Chorus)

After all those secrets you let me believe
There`s no rose petal air, there`s just thorns when I breathe
How can you say that to me
