Michael Penn - Evenfall lyrics

If you wipe the slate, let me start again from this moment on

We've been through this before

Every single time that I thought you had gone

Well, I'm out of reserve, I'm out of my wherewithal

And when the moment comes when I've got nothing left

I find I've got it all

See what I know

I can't always believe a poison kiss can taste like a reprieve

And once again, I'm caught up from the evenfall

I know it's late, I'm never in this frame of mind any earlier

I can judge the hour

By how much of what I see is no more than a blur

Well, I'm down on my knees

Looking for some kind of antidote

When that moment comes

I keep one thing in mind that keeps my head afloat

What I believe ain't always what I feel

Another chance can sting like naked steel

And once again, I'm caught up from the evenfall

Well, it's a mystery can't you see

Why you'd still be here with me

I don't need no guarantee

But don't ever turn from me, don't ever turn me away

But I believe ain't always what I feel

Another chance can sting like naked steel

And once again, I'm caught up from the evenfall

Well, what I know

I can't always believe a poison kiss can taste
