Black sky
Keeping it light
All the time
You stay away
Cold here
It’s never enough
Cooling down
Til we’re done for
You lie awake
And I can’t sleep
Crying, laughing
No, we couldn’t keep that
Take it easy
If we take it too high
I’ll be losing you
I could lose me too
I’ve been depending on the overgrown
Too many lovers that I’ll never know
Counting my losses as I let them go
The water heavy as I sink below…
I’ve been pretending all my shots are blown
Cover my heart up, never let it show
I’m shaking it off to find a higher low
So hold me when I fall away from the lines
When I’m losing it all, when I’m wasting the light
And hold me when I put my heart in your hands
When I’m losing it all, when I’m wasting it all
Like a spotlight. the water hits me
Ran it extra cold to shake the words from my mouth
Though I know that no one’s listening
I nervously rehearsed for when you’re around
And I keep waiting like you might change my mind
Who wrote the rules on goodbye?
There’s never been a way to make this easy
When there’s nothing quite wrong but it doesn’t feel right
Either your head or your heart, you set the other on fire
Back and forth, now I’m feeling guilty
Because I just can’t stop this pendulum in my head
Though I know that our time is ending
I’d rather lay forever right in this bed
We fell from the peak
And the stars, they broke their code
I’m trying to forget
How I landed on this road
I’m caught in between
What I wish and what I know
Take a little bit of this
I will show you what I’m on
It may just be what you need
We’re living too fast to fall asleep
I will show you the way tonight,
And I promise
That this could be everything you needed
This could be everything you dreamed of
So just come and lay with me
And I will show you how
I can show you now
Take a hit and let it out
Cuz there’s a method to my madness
All you need is a little practice
Follow me baby, you don’t have to say a thing
Keep your eyes closed we can live in reverie
Breathe just a little deeper
There is no better feeling than now
I promise
I won’t waste a day unless it’s with you
I heard the news today
That you’re not mine to keep
Don’t struggle too much now
While I kill you in your sleep
What is lust
If it’s not being by yourself?
I won’t be gentle
To the body on the shelf
These are only thoughts I’m having
Thoughts safe within my head
It’s just you crying
It’s just you turning red
When I heard the news
That you weren’t mine to save
I hoped that you were comfortable
In your quiet lasting grave
It’s not really slaughter
It’s just blood
It’s just you dying
You’re just dead
