vera harlot - velvet veil lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
squint your eyes
for a big reveal, my wounds are clean
from time to time
i let them bleed, so i can feel
a lullaby
if i sing it clear, i’ll disappear
into the night
into the veil

[pre+chorus 1]
water my eyes with tears from different cries
and let me savour them up like wine
i stand at the top of my head like a god

[chorus 1]
is it good if it hurts this bad?
is it lonely if i pose for the blank?
is it lavish if i fix my own heart?
no one ever wants to paint me back
there’s a brush with my name attached
and there’s a studio where i can’t go back
left my body in paris that day
now i’m covered in this velvet veil

[post+chorus]
for life
for life
for life
[verse 1]
walk like a fox
l!ck my wounds to stop the itching
i bite my toes to stop the sinning
i walked my way out of the eden
and if there’s a god
let him be my only witness
and let him watch me out the window
i bet he’s softer than my ego

[pre+chorus 2]
shake this dust with l+st from different times
i sang and danced like stars in the sky
i’m used to watching them fall like a fraud

[chorus 1]
is it good if it hurts this bad?
is it lonely if i pose for the blank?
is it lavish if i fix my own heart?
no one ever wants to paint me back
there’s a brush with my name attached
and there’s a studio where i can’t go back
left my body in paris that day
now i’m covered in this velvet veil

[post+chorus]
for life
for life
for life
for life
for life
for life
[verse 2]
i carved my name
into the clay
hoping someone
might mold me away
but every crack, every line, it stays
like shadows in a church that never pray
i held the moon
between my t++th
and bled the stars
onto the street

[chorus 2]
is it a prayer if no one’s there to speak?
or just the silence begging for release?
is it good if it cuts this deep?
is it bitter when the wolves start to weep?
is it holy when the paint peels apart?
no one ever dared to frame my heart
there’s a canvas i’ll never fill
a dream i left by my windowsill
and my body in paris still decays
while i’m wrapped tight in this velvet veil

[post+chorus]
for life
for life
for life
[bridge]
i kissed the ground
like broken glass
a little faith
for a world i passed
if heaven’s near, it’s behind my mask
and if i fall, i won’t turn back
i danced with fire
but i missed the flame
just ashes now
where there once was pain
if there’s a god, he knows my name
but even he stays quiet in shame

[chorus 3]
is it good if it cuts this deep?
is it bitter when the wolves start to weep?
is it holy when the paint peels apart?
no one ever dared to frame my heart
there’s a canvas i’ll never fill
a dream i left by my windowsill
and my body in paris still decays
while i’m wrapped tight in this velvet veil

[post+chorus]
for life
for life
for life
for life
for life
for life
