Beautiful Lies - Tanner Usrey

I love the feeling when we lift off Watching the world so small below I love the dreaming when I think of The safety in the clouds out my window I wonder what keeps us so high up? Could there be a love beneath these wings? If we suddenly fall should I scream out? Or keep very quiet and cling to My mouth as I'm crying? So frightened of dying Relax, yes, I'm trying But fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me I love the quiet of the night time When the sun is drowned in the deathly sea I can feel my heart beating as I speed from The sense of time catching up with me The sky's set out like a pathway But who decides which route we take? As people drift into a dreamworld I close my eyes as my hands shake And when I see a new day Who's driving this anyway? I picture my own grave 'Cause fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Floating neither up or down I wonder when I'll hit the ground Will the earth beneath my body shake And cast your sleeping hearts awake? Could it tremble stars from moonlit skies? Could it drag a tear from your cold eyes? I live on the right side, I sleep in the left That's why everything's got to be love or death Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on...

All the sorrow and the pain All the sacrifice in vain I was much too blind to see You make a loser out of me You put me down for oh so long While you sang your serpent's song The rest is history You can do no more to me I've been down so low Had nowhere left to go I could see it in your eyes All your promises were lies Promises and lies Your cut was quick and deep But then you thought you'd never need a friend But all things change, and tides must turn And you let all your bridges burn Too many fatal wounds to heal The rest is history You can do no more to me I've been down so low Had nowhere left to go I could see it in your eyes All your promises were lies Promises and lies

My little girl met a new friend Just the other day On the playground at school Between the tires and the swings But she came home with tear-filled eyes And she said to me "Daddy, Alyssa Lies" I just brushed it off at first Cause I didn't know how much my little girl had been hurt Or the things she had seen I wasn't ready when I said you can tell me And she said Chorus Alyssa Lies To the classroom Alyssa lies Everyday at school Alyssa lies To the teacher As she tries to cover every bruise My little girl laid her head down That night to go to sleep As I stepped out the room I heard her say A prayer so soft and sweet God bless my mom and my dad And my new friend Alyssa I know she needs it bad Chorus I had the worst night of sleep in years As I tried to think of a way to calm her fears I knew just what it was I had to do But when we got to school on Monday I heard the news My little girl asked me why everybody looked so sad The lump in my throat grew bigger With every question that she asked Until I felt the tears run down my face And I told her that Alyssa wouldn't be at school today She doesn't lie In the classroom She doesn't lie Anymore at school Alyssa lies With Jesus Because there's nothing anyone would do Tears filled my eyes When my little girl asked me why Alyssa lies Daddy tell me why Alyssa lies

You took the tunnel route home You've never taken that way with me before Did you feel a need for change? Apologies on your fingernails Love flickered in the city of lights Like intermittent radio waves I don't need your tears I don't want your love I've just got to get home And I feel like I'm breaking up but I wanted to stay Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way I don't want you to hold me, I want you to pray This is bigger than us You went where the horses cry You'd never taken that way with me before Did you feel a need for change? Guilt smeared across your lips I was tired and cold from the window You're tired nothing has changed I don't need your tears I don't want your love I've just got to get home And I feel like I'm breaking up but I wanted to stay Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way I don't want you to hold me, I want you to pray This is bigger than us And I feel like I'm breaking up but I wanted to stay Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way I don't want you to hold me, I want you to pray This is bigger than us And I feel like I'm breaking up but I wanted to stay Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way I don't want you to hold me, I want you to pray This is bigger than us And I feel like I'm breaking up but I wanted to stay Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way I don't want you to hold me, I want you to pray This is bigger than us

Slow I'm gonna settle down slow Down to the hum of electric life and soul Faith In my hand to trade But for the world and the light of a bitter scent And you can get me work But I can't work for free I've got a room downtown With a bed and a big TV If you can raise a star From garbage on the street Then you can make a modern life For a modern girl to lead Alone I feel alone When I'm living in a building Like a tooth in heaven's throat True It's a beautiful view But you know they're gonna set it on fire When they feel like something new And you can get me work But I can't work for free I've got a room downtown With a bed and a big TV If you can raise a star From garbage on the street Then you can make a modern life For a modern girl to lead But why can't anything be real? Emotion like the movies feel? A pill to break the drone of reverie So bring me to the hand of fate The river or the new arcade So I can wash the empty hour away But why can't anything be real? Emotion like the movies feel So bring me to the hand of fate The river or the new arcade And you can get me work But I can't work for free I've got a room downtown With a bed and a big TV If you can raise a star From garbage on the street Then you can make a modern life For a modern girl to lead 'Cause I'm living in a room downtown With a bed and a big TV 'Cause I'm living in a room downtown With a bed and a big TV 'Cause I'm living in a room downtown With a bed and a big TV 'Cause I'm living in a room downtown With a bed and a big TV 'Cause I'm living in a room downtown With a bed and a big TV 'Cause I'm living in a room downtown With a bed and a big TV

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset She's going off about something that you said 'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do I'm in my room, it's a typical Tuesday night I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like And she'll never know your story like I do 'Cause she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me, you belong with me Walk in the streets with you in your worn-out jeans I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be Laughing on a park bench thinking to myself "Hey, isn't this easy?" And you've got a smile that can light up this whole town I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down You say, "You're fine", I know you better than that Hey, what you doing with a girl like that? She wears high heels, I wear sneakers She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers Dreaming 'bout the day when you wake up and find That what you're looking for has been here the whole time If you could see that I'm the one who understands you Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me Oh, I remember you driving to my house In the middle of the night I'm the one who makes you laugh When you know you're 'bout to cry I know your favorite songs And you tell me 'bout your dreams Think I know where you belong Think I know it's with me Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you? Been here all along, so why can't you see? You belong with me Standing by and waiting at your back door All this time, how could you not know, baby? You belong with me, you belong with me You belong with me Have you ever thought just maybe, you belong with me? You belong with me
