Alabaster Lyrics - Singles - Rocky Votolato

On the outside looking in 

I've never been able to crack the code 

To break the secret spell 

That would open up the door and let me in 

To everything I've been looking for so hard I've never seen 

But I feel my strength returning tonight 

Its flowing from the purest well to ever give water 

It spills out into an ocean where the sharks are circling 

A carnival of counterfeits has no room for something real 

Arrogance and ego wrapped around every word 

Shouted from the pulpit as a judgment to control 

These were my roots my seed was thrown in shallow soil 

I grew into the thorn bushes to be scorched by the sun 

But I feel the gravel move beneath my feet 

The smell of the gasoline mixed in with the trees 

When my faith is strong I know my strength 

The threats will be screamed when the vultures fell threatened 

So I'll open up the door and let you in 

I want to break the alabaster smell the sweet perfume 

And when the bottle is broken I'll have nothing left to give 

I'll know I'll already have everything worth having 

But I feel my strength returning tonight 

Its flowing from the purest well to ever give water 

It spills out into and ocean where the sharks are circling 

A carnival of counterfeits want to crucify something real
