Lips Like Ether LyricsYou slipped into my bloodstream through a severed vein
Anesthetized the pain in a heart of lead
I know that you’re not heaven sent
Maybe what you said wasn’t what you meant
It went straight to my head
And in your room, the streetlight was shimmering like a magic lantern
And I thought I must be there
With your lips like ether leaving me blind
You take me to a higher place leave me behind
I feel that I’m on hallowed ground
I nevеr allow anyone to shelter mе
I chewed the words till they sounded like lies
But then you came kicked down the door
And I saw you shine like a lighthouse on the shore
The sunrise in your smile
And somewhere in the silence
I rise above the fear, the violence
You let me be rich for a whilst
With your lips like ether leaving me blind
You take me to a higher place leave me behind
I feel that I’m on hallowed ground
Though yours is not the air that I breathe
Though I’m lost to all the beauty you see
I want to believe
You slipped into my bloodstream thru a severed vein
Anesthetized the pain in a heart of lead
I was hungry I was weak
But what at the time seemed so oblique
I won’t forget
Sometimes when I’m with you
I feel nothing bad could happen to me
But I know that is not true
With your lips like ether leaving me blind
You take me to a higher place leave me behind
I feel that I’m on hallowed ground
