Mallory Knox – Lonely Hours lyrics

[Intro]
Oh, sweet love, what have we done?
We’ve broken down again
Where all the streets are overrun with lies that never end
They’ll tie us down & lift us up for everyone to see
Revealing all our darkest truths we’ve tried so hard to keep

[Verse 1]
When all the lights are out we’ll have to face this world alone
With no one there to hold our hand our bodies turn to stone
There’s monsters deep inside of us they’re killing us to breathe
And watch them take a hold of us & kill us while we sleep
While we sleep

[Pre-Chorus 1]
They may break my heart this time, but my body will survive

[Chorus 1]
Oh, sweet lover, can you see me washing away all our sins?
In our darkest lonely hours, we learn to forget and forgive
I will love you again and again
Again and again

[Verse 2]
Oh, darling, make your way to me
They’re breaking through the door
I need your help to stand again, I'm broken on the floor
My hands are tied, my knees are weak from crawling in the dirt
Without your arms supporting me
They’ll see me at my worst, at my worst
They may break my heart this time, but my body will survive

[Chorus 2]
Oh, sweet lover, can you see me washing away all our sins
In our darkest lonely hours, we learn to forget and forgive
If we never ever come home (if we never ever come home)
If we never ever come home (if we never ever come home)
I will love you again and again

[Bridge]
If you stand with me I won’t let you fall
Building up the barriers, we’ll break through the walls
If you stand with me, I won’t let you fall
We’re building up the barriers, we’ll break through walls
Oh, if you stand with me, I won’t let you fall
We’re building up the barriers to break through the walls
Oh, if you stand with me, I won’t let you fall
We’re building up the barriers to break through the walls

[Pre-Chorus 2]
If you break my heart this time, then my body will survive

[Chorus 2]
Oh sweet lover can you see me washing away all our sins
In our darkest lonely hours we learn to forget & forgive
If we never ever come home (if we never ever come home)
If we never ever come home (if we never ever come home)
I will love you again and again

[Outro]
I will love you again and again
