The Calm Before the Storm
1st verse
Shed the last tear you’re crying in vain
Cross your heart and bat your eyes, you show no shame
Bite your lips you kissed him with
Keep your apologies
You’re not sorry
No you’re not sorry
No you’re not sorry
Chorus
The black clouds are stirring above me
The wind is whistling and blowing through the trees
This dust is blinding my eyes
Still won’t see through your disguise
The rain has come but you’ll stay warm
Because it’s the calm before the storm
2nd verse
Keep my will close you hold it inside
Take my hand and rip my soul, all with your smile
You watch me when I give in
You bring me to my knees
But you’re not sorry
No you’re not sorry
No you’re not sorry
Repeat chorus
Bridge
I’m trapped in your fake innocence
Can’t crawl to safety
All you have to do is say “please”
Won’t face the reality that’s staring back at me
