Charity Bliss - Holidays in the United States Lyrics

Feel time
Slipping through your hands again
With all your plans
Tie a knot
You'll never kill like they did
It's all an imbalance

This loneliness will pass
But deaths of friends amassed
A fear that you'll be last

Feel the horror change your face
Loving empires are laid to waste
Promise to appreciate
Holidays in the United States

In the end
The child in you won't hit back
Or cover your tracks
Left alone
Pining for a sense of self
But all you found is

Pain from the divorce
Lacking nuance of remorse
And those you left ignored

Feel the horror change your face
Loving empires are laid to waste
Promise to appreciate
Holidays in the United States
Feel the horror change your name
All your heroes burst and decay
Promise to appreciate
Holidays in the United States

I complicate the feeling
In spite of who we are
If I praise you like the sun
Will you return to me at dawn
Your painting on the wall
I talk to it in the dark
It listens to my thoughts
But never says too much at all
A childlike wonder skipping like a stone
If you were still around
I know we'd make this house a home

This loneliness will pass
But deaths of friends amassed
A fear that you'll be last

Feel the horror change your face
Loving empires are laid to waste
Promise to appreciate
Holidays in the United States
Feel the horror change your name
All your heroes burst and decay
Promise to appreciate
Holidays in the United States

You trace your mind to see
Which novelty is worthy
But in the time and space we occupy
I will be buried
