Zoe Elliot – Rumours Lyrics



Cover my ears I don’t want to hear anymore. Lies upon lies, credibility thrown out the door. How am I meant to believe that one so close to me could commit the ultimate betrayal. And how can I question a love, the only love I’ve known? Is my doubt in fact betrayal? Cover my eyes, can’t handle this sight anymore. Strobed silhouettes turning pirouettes around my already dizzy mind. They move in untraceable steps, I try to forget these rumours that poison my perspective. They feed my fears for the worst, I can’t breathe cause it hurts. I fell for their betrayal. I fell, I fell, I fell for their deceptions. I fell, I fell, I fell for their deceptions. Thought I’d be stronger, thought I’d be wiser. I fell to the lies that compromise us, I fell for their deception. Cover my mouth as poison seeps out from my teeth. Accusations cast, all trust is lost and I’m only one sentence deep. My tongue is a viper at best, an uninvited guest in this moment of hearing your perspective. I see the pain it inflicts, the love it constricts. Is my anger but subjective?
