Lauren Mayberry - Sunday Best | KARAOKE

♫♫♫♫♫

God bless destruction of an ego

The condemnation of your pride

'Cause it's quite freeing 

to hit the ground and take it 

in your stride

Choose what to keep 

and leave behind

The contradictions that 

you can't change

Big blackout nights 

and dark red skies

The imitation of a life 

you'd love but never tried

Is what you'll hunger 

for in time

Hold on, don't forget

Careful with words left unsaid

I'll look for you 

in your Sunday best

And you can remind me it ends

The kind of sex 

that requires sadness

Is not a way to spend your time

Don't walk on eggshells 

if you're not the shy, 

retiring kind

Don't betray your body 

or your mind

A declaration of forgiveness

A celebration of desire

The sweet seduction of the sand 

inside an hourglass

A ticking clock hung on a wire

Hold on, don't forget

Careful with words left unsaid

I'll look for you 

in your Sunday best

And you can remind me it ends

Keep thinking one day, 

maybe I will find 

the beauty in goodbye

See the sweetness in the knowing 

that we really tried

Stories bought with broken ribs, 

taste of sugar on your lips

The kind of feeling that 

you haven't had 

since we were kids

Silver linings in defeat, 

pavement cracks 

beneath your feet

The kind of love you hold on to 

until you find out 

what it means

I'm thinking one day, 

maybe I will find 

the freedom in goodbye

Find the solace in the promise 

that you really tried

Hold on, don't forget 

Careful with words left unsaid

I'll look for you 

in your Sunday best

And you can remind me it ends
