lyrics

You're nothing less than fire between lines,
I'm choking on the smoke from our jestered nights,
Spitting at the thought of making a move, I'm gasping for you.
This will break me down tonight, dissonance and dizziness just don't mix,
Stuttering won't make the words come easier,
Matchstick houses just fall with the wind.

So just go and, lay back down and hide your head,
Cross your fingers and dust over your tracks,
Lead me out into the open cold.
(A shoulder to go with what beats inside your chest)
One day I hope to God someone will find me, or maybe I'll just gain some sense of sight.
(My eyes were closed for far too long)
My eyes were closed for far too long.

Exit stage right, intoxication takes their situation up the stairs.
Love or drink as it approaches, make your pick, lust glides across the floor.
A demon wingless, black, and unsung. She's a good girl she's just caught up.
I'm in for the night, the day is mine. But when our time is up who's left untouched? (x2)

So close, what happens now?
You, couldn't hear me anyway.

How can you be so blind? I'm standing right here.
Maybe if you weren't so deaf, you'd hear me screaming the past three years.
You're trapped everyday but now you're free for just a minute,
Just trust your feet and dive.
Take her hand, kiss her lips, and find out if you're alive.
