While Kansas city sleeps

Cloaked in the twilight of this valley

At this church cross standing 

Roadside from a tree

I keep driving to the most desolate seclusions

My blackest secrets still imprison me

And why don't we say what we really feel?



Whenever things are at their best...

Whatever lies will help you rest

Whenever things are at their best...

Why do we wait for it to fall apart?

Fall apart 



Welcome to the after-taste

Of cheap wine and bad decisions

My heart trembles in this morning prayer

I can't turn my eyes 

From this inner most seductions

But still somehow you found me there

And why don't we say what we really feel?



Whenever things are at their best...

Whatever lies will help you rest

Whenever things are at their best...

Why do we wait for it to fall apart?



It's my mistake to say

I'm not the world safest bet

I've never been too good at being good

And its probably sad to say...



Whenever things are at their best...

Whatever lies will help you rest

Whenever things are at their best...

Why do we wait for it to fall apart?



Whenever things are at their best...

Whatever lies will help you rest

Whenever things are at their best...

Why do we wait for it to fall apart?
