lyrics

The Keep
Mercier/Mercier

The feeling that I despise
Somehow you make it last
Those things that you still hide
They're a part of someone else's past
You stop before I do
I do something sinful
You better stop before we do
We do something cruel

Say you don't
Say you won't
You won't keep it away
Say you don't
And I'm begging the world to let me see
I'm begging my heart to let me breath
Until I break your skin
Until you let me in
Until you give me everything

Wait, dear wait
Heaven's on my way
If I give you my hands will you
Just guide me through that secret place?

Who knows what's on your mind
Who knows how you feel
Those things that you still hide
They're a part of someone else will
You stop before I do
I do something sinful
You better stop before I do
I do something cruel

When Comes Daylight
(Mercier/Mercier)

Should I be blame?
Let him decide
Withdraw my name
When comes daylight

To win or loose
Is this a game?
No time to choose
Please, they all look the same

But you were never given a chance
He offered gifts, he offered deliverance
Then made it disappear
Like dust or fear
Shut up, shut up

To stay or go
Where is your guide?
Faith melts like snow
When comes daylight

But you were never given a chance
He offered gifts, he offered deliverance
Then made it disappear
Like dust or fear

But you're on your way
To cross the line
Smile on your face
Boy, you show all the signs

You'll win the race
Hands on your head
Blood on you face
But the spirit's now dead

Look me in the eyes
Say that you're dead

No the guide's not the man ahead
He's pushing in your back instead
Hang on to your heart
Here come daylight
