Sea Island Cotton Lyrics

White lace

White lies

My numb face

Your tired eyes

Seven sins all turned around

Put in reverse

Take it like a man

I mean, my offer still stands

Take it like a man

Take all I have, all I am

White lace

White lies

My numb face

Your tired eyes

White lace

White lies

All the soft beds in the world

Smell like your skin

No matter how hard I try

I just can't let you in

Bed sheets in sea island cotton

An invitation

You take up all of the space in my imagination

Shadows surrounding our pillow fort

Stand to attention

We could call each other names

To break the tension

I'm doing my time and

nothing beautiful comes easy

But I'm the contradiction to that myself

I'm just pretty sure that whatever your reason is

You're so full of shit that your eyes turn black

Take it like a man I mean, my offer still stands

Take all that I have, take all that I am

Take it like a man I mean, my offer still stands

Take it like a man

Take it like a man

Shadows surrounding our pillow fort

Stand to attention
