Whisper

Come in, sit down, sweet angel, leave me all your tears Tell me all of your troubles, the weight of your short years Love is only a river drowning all of your cheer Sell me all of your laughter, and I will take some of your fear Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh His favorite days were the mornings She came with confessions of cardinal sin A beast in the business of selling forgiveness Dead eyes on a treacherous grin Yet he laps up the vice like a wolf in the night He's the left hand of God on the stage And with one hand he offers salvation to lovers The other, it taketh away So give me your fire, give me your fear Give me your faith when love gives you tears Give me your heart, give me your fate Give me your hand when love gives you hate Give me your prayers up on your feet And I'll give you a show, it helps fill the seats So give me your sins, give me your lies But whisper your love, and I'll whisper mine His favorite line was the one formed outside When they trade in confessions for lies A beast in the business of selling forgiveness And buying salvation with wine And he cries out to God, "How can you claim them all When I know that they are all mine?" So give me your fire, give me your fear Give me your faith when love gives you tears Give me your heart, give me your fate Give me your hand when love gives you hate Give me your prayers up on your feet And I'll give you a show, it helps fill the seats So give me your sins, give me your lies But whisper your love, and I'll whisper mine Whoa, give me your fire, give me your fear Give me your faith when love gives you tears Give me your heart, give me your fate Give me your hand when love gives you hate Give me your prayers up on your feet Give you a show, it helps fill the seats Give me your sins, give me your lies But whisper your love, whoa, oh-oh, and I'll whisper mine Come in, sit down, sweet angel and I will take some of your fear So give me your fire, give me your fear Give me your faith when love gives you tears Give me your heart, give me your fate Give me your hand when love gives you hate Give me your prayers up on your feet And I'll give you a show, it helps fill the seats So give me your sins, give me your lies But whisper your love (and I'll whisper mine) (And I'll whisper mine) (And I'll whisper mine)
