Keep Those Words Behind Those Lips

Tell me something real
Something for me to believe in
Something that won’t ever fly away
Like ashes in the wind
My heart was broken by broken promises
So tell me something real
And make me believe it’s true
But never say those simple words
They broke so many hearts
So many hearts that shattered to silver shards
And crumbled to ash
Ash that grew to sand in the sea
So keep those words behind those lips
And tell me simple fact
It’s all I want to hear
Just something real
Plain little things that keep my heart safe
Safe from those small shards that shine so sad
That are buried by the crashing waves
I won’t let my heart fall like that
So tell me something real
And keep those secret words behind those lips
So please
Tell me something real to believe
And I'll pray it won't be a lie
