Testify (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Home, Sweet home
Always on the road
Chasin’ gold, fool’s gold
Nothing left but bones

I don’t want to spend
Another lonely night
Walkin’ around this
World without you by my side
In the corner of the room
I see you standing all alone
Every single time that
You’re next to me
Oh I can testify it takes
The breath from me
I think it’s safe to safe
It’s been too long

Gone, on my way to Rome
Far from home, sweet home
Cut me to the bone

I don’t want to spend
Another lonely night
Walkin’ around this world
Without you by my side
In the corner of the room
I see you standing all alone
Every single time that
You’re next to me
Oh I can testify it takes
The breath from me
I think it’s safe to safe
It’s been too long

I don’t want to spend
Another lonely night
Walkin’ around this world
Without you by my side
In the corner of the room
I see you standing all alone
Every single time that
You’re next to me
Oh I can testify it takes
The breath from me
I think it’s safe to safe
It’s been too long

Testify (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Morning’s hard coffee’s cold
Pretending that the days mean more than getting old
Stale headlines others drenched in pride
Marching to their drum with fear standing beside
But if I close my eyes and throw back my head
I can see his face and I hear the words he said
And my memories ache and my senses burn
Did he dream too late will we ever learn

CHORUS
I, I want to testify
My love still lives and breathes
And my soul is screaming why
The thoughts won’t let me sleep
Don’t let hearts break
And don’t let children cry
Before it gets too late
I want to testify

I take what’s said as my daily dread
I turn the page and I turn my head
I pick I choose on the evening news
Cause by cause they fight and one by one they lose
Must I live my days in these concrete ways
Will the fire break through this smokey haze
And I swear tonight I’m gonna find that place
It’s not the love that dies but the understanding ways

CHORUS

Rip through the wire that screens in my window
Throw open the shade that covers my mind
I’m going to touch I’ve got to believe
The bell tolls for me

CHORUS

Testify (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

The movie ran through me
The glamour subdue me
The tabloid untie me
I’m empty please fill me
Mister anchor assure me
That Baghdad is still burning
Your voice it is so soothing
That cunning mantra of killing
I need you my witness
To dress this up so bloodless
To numb me and purge me now
Of thoughts of blaming you
Yes the car is our wheelchair
My witness your coughing
Oily silence mocks the legless
Now traveling in coffins
But on the corner
The jury’s sleepless
We found your weakness
And it’s right outside our door

Now testify

With precision you feed me
My witness I’m hungry
Your temple it calms me
So I can carry on
My slaving sweating the skin right off my bones
On a bed of fire I’m choking on the smoke that fills my home
The wrecking ball rushing
My witness your blushing
The pipeline is gushing
While here we lie in tombs
While on the corner
The jury’s sleepless
We found your weakness
And it’s right outside your door

Now testify

Mass graves for the pump and the price is set
Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now controls the past
Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now?

Now testify

Testify (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I want to testify, testify my love for you
I’m here to testify, testify my love for you
And I will do, all that I can do for you
Together, we will be together

Come on testify, testify your love for me
Testify, testify your love for me
You can be all the things you want to be
And together, we will be together

Every heart that’s ever been broken
Knows these things must not go unspoken
Giving yourself, giving each other
The strength to lean on one another
I’ll be there for you, you’ll be here for me

That is why I want to testify, testify my faith in you
Come on and testify, testify your trust in me
We can be all the things we want to be
And together, we can do it together

Every heart that’s ever been broken
Knows these things must not go unspoken
Giving yourself, giving each other
The strength to lean on one another
I’ll be there for you, I know that you’ll be here for me

I want to testify, testify my love for you
I’m here to testify, testify my love for you
I will do everything that I can do for you
And you know together, we will always be together

Testify (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I’ve been cheating myself for too long
living as if I was going nowhere
and I know it’s wrong
I’ve been fighting myself for too long
I try, really try to keep my head up high
and I know it’s wrong, and I should really know better
but it’s been so long.

Chorus
I know, How I feel
but I’m afraid to show it
inside it’s so real, and no one else would know it
the whole truth, and no lies
cutting deeper I can hear my soul cry
come on testify
come on testify

I’ve been lying to myself for too long
silence… was my only comfort
and I know it’s wrong but I can’t change the weather
it’s been too long

Chorus

To the friends that I lost on the way
To the friends I’ve been pusing away
You could say I’ve made it but I’m jaded
and inside i’m falling

Chorus

I’ve been fighting myself for too long
and ive been hating myself for too long.
