lyrics

Armor

I guess I see no reason
for you to trust me
and to be honest
I wouldn’t trust me either

But I think now might be the time to start
I guess now’s as good a time as any
now our armor gives us no protection
don’t you see now - might be the right time

You say that something’s missing
and you give no good reason
you think you know what love is…
but that’s a misconception

Don’t you see now it wasn’t what you thought?
think it’s time you changed your definition
now our armor gives us no protection
don’t you see now - we’ve got a good thing

Always on your guard for any imperfection
you push so hard - for me to keep my distance

I’ve got a few good questions - for which you have no answers
is that an indication - it’s time to change your position?

Don’t you see now it wasn’t what you thought
think it’s time you changed your definition
now our armor gives us no protection
can’t you see now - might be the right time

might be the right time
might be the right time?
might be the right time

According to Alpha Cat, "When I wrote the song I'd read how astronomers had determined that you could escape a black hole, but only by going all the way through and out the other side. And that leads to this worm hole theory, where not only do you avoid annihilation, but you arrive at a place you might never have reached otherwise. ... more
