Shifting Beach Blues
Come on in. You're looking tired, you're wearing thin
Take my arms, wrap them round
You can hide here it's behind you now
Make yourself at home. I know it's not much, but it's my own
And you don't have to wear your make-up round here
You don't have to cry to show me you're scared
You don't have to tell me why or how, it's all behind you now
I don't make promises I know you won't keep
I no longer build on the shifting beach
That look on your face is familiar to me
I remember the fakes in the mirror with me
To see things as they are, why all the grief?
Who knows? Who cares?
The scars become belief
Here, you can keep this towel
When I wake up tomorrow will you still be around?
Take off all that armour, leave your standards behind
The way that you pose hides the way that you shine
There's only one side to the truth that you tell
Don't let it vanish behind the veil
Don't let it vanish behind the veil
Take my arms, wrap them round
You can hide here it's behind you now
Make yourself at home. I know it's not much, but it's my own
And you don't have to wear your make-up round here
You don't have to cry to show me you're scared
You don't have to tell me why or how, it's all behind you now
I don't make promises I know you won't keep
I no longer build on the shifting beach
That look on your face is familiar to me
I remember the fakes in the mirror with me
To see things as they are, why all the grief?
Who knows? Who cares?
The scars become belief
Here, you can keep this towel
When I wake up tomorrow will you still be around?
Take off all that armour, leave your standards behind
The way that you pose hides the way that you shine
There's only one side to the truth that you tell
Don't let it vanish behind the veil
Don't let it vanish behind the veil
