Better Not Said

from Break the Bottle by Jess Silk

/

lyrics

Verse 1:
I’ve watched the skies light up
just like the end of days
a red and setting sun
Which of us will be saved?

Are there demons to the left of me
and angels to the right?

Verse 2:
A winding country road
A car caught up on fire
Don’t know which way to go
sat upon melting tyres

Does good carry a flaming sword
and bad aim to stop the fight?

Chorus:
Can’t Demons love and angels tempt?
Is Hell below my feet and Heaven above my head?
Well, it’s better not said

Verse 3:
Caught up on city streets
under the pouring rain
They can’t admit defeat
because the world will never be the same

The end is coming
and now they're running out of time

Verse 4:
The roar of motor bikes
Slim, pale, red and black
An unholy light
filtering through smoking cracks

They walk forward hand-in-hand
wings stretched towards the sky

Chorus
