Artist/Band: White Lies
Lyrics for Song: Fifty On Our Foreheads
Lyrics for Album: To Lose My Life... [2009]



On the cusp of vessel 18

A look of terror in our eyes

The moonlight licked the face of danger

Innocence made us like soldiers

Untouchable and golden

The quilt of darkness dotted with our teardrops



I know you're sad I'm leaving

So this may hurt a little

But girl look from your window late tonight

You think my heart is frozen

While yours is slowly grieving

You'll see the boy you loved start burning in the sky



We were a dozen to the project

With a galaxy of questions

And all we heard was lies about the truth

No choice but be obedient

Like prisoners of war

Caught on the wrong side of morality and youth



We thought about our loved ones

Tallied 50 on our foreheads

With the pen your mother gave me in the Spring

The sun beat at the windows

Within an hour James had cracked

Left the ship and died still clinging to the wings
