Iris – In Spite lyrics

And I don't want to lie
In spite of what you're thinking
No cloud within your sky
Until I come to place one

till you understand that I'm just not right
Till you understand that I'm just not right
(with myself)

we must slow down
(with myself)
We must slow down

in spite of the words I've left inside you
In spite of the wall I build we
Can't tear down
In spite of the way I run when
Still you keep calling
You feel like the only angel
God's allowed

one day I had become
Your unsuspected traitor
Then handed you in turn
To my eternal captors

when the lightning strikes upon
Holy land
And you're lost in spite of your only map

well I know
It hurts so bad
Yes I know
It's all I've had

in spite of the ghosts that roam beside you
In spite of the shadows on your bedroom wall
In spite of the nightmare dreams that cause to awaken
You still are the strongest earth soul of them all

and I don't want to lie
In spite of you're thinking
And I don't want to lie

in spite of the words I've left inside you
In spite of the wall I build we
Can't tear down
In spite of the way I run when
Still you keep calling
You feel like the only angel
God's allowed
