Lisa Miskovsky – Handbag lyrics

Let me be the one you said to me
Show your mercy, help me, 'cause I try so hard, it hurts too
Be here and attend this ethic war
Embrace me with your shelter, ‘cause it gets cold when he tells me
All these lies

For how long, will the fire burn
‘Cause it saves and it kills me?
For how long, will eternity last for the thrill?
How long must I wait to see his holiness?
How long must it take, before the master sees me?
See me now, please hear me now

You’re rockin' on your seesaw night and day
Where nothing makes a difference, nothing seems to change here
Scared to feel the ground beneath your feet
Scared to loose your grip and fall down, back where you belong
Love, wash it away, yeah, wash it away

For how long, will the fire burn
‘Cause it saves and it kills me?
For how long, will eternity last for the thrill?
How long must I wait to see his holiness?
How long must it take, before the master sees me?
See me now, please hear me now

I was wrong and hated being right
You gave the world a reason, so it shouldn’t be a problem
Gave us something to believe in here
We blew it into pieces then we, shoveled in the dirt

For how long, will the fire burn
‘Cause it saves and it kills me?
For how long, will eternity last for the thrill?
How long must I wait to see his holiness?
How long must it take, before the master sees me?
See me now, please hear me now
