Akron/Family - Until The Morning Lyrics

Until the Morning

Don't bother looking for a chair
Just throw your coat down anywhere
I'm sorry I'm so poorly dressed
I gave up hoping for a guest
You say you've got a weight to bear
A cross you carry everywhere
I say I know, and it's not fair
I tell you, you can leave that here
I had always wondered how you carried all that grief I know
It wasn't right I know to saddle you with mine
And my life my identity I Lay them at your feet
and stand here broken in the mirror of your eyes
The old prayers written on your skin
Claim you were meant to live in sin
They're singing mass out in the yard
They heard that you're the one I want
I'm about to burn alive
you still won’t look me in the eyes
I'll turn the light out if you want
If you feel safer in the dark
I came to you an orphan but I'm leaving here a thief if
I can only find the door I'll go tonight.
And my past and my future I left them in the street
in the hope you'd let me come inside
