Three Little Words – Second Language

Three Little Words

The dawn cracks
The day breaks
The wind blows
Gravity just sucks

The clouds burst
The sun beats down
This tired old world
Just turns away

Three little words
(Can't take them back)

I’m your second skin
Your reckoning
You lay me out
Then reel me in

You're my evil twin
My mortal sin
My dose of doubt
My heroine

Three little words
(Can't take them back)
Three little words

You're a puppeteer with a supple wrist
Got me wired like a contortionist
You yank the chain, I shudder, twist
You say the words but don't move your lips
A whisper soft ventriloquist

The night falls
The breeze dies

The stars blink
And so did you

Don't leave a prayer
Don't give a damn
In like a lion
Out like a sacrificial lamb

Three little words
(Can't take them back)
Three little words
