I fell in love with a
shadow stitched up to a boy
I couldn't reconcile his smile
with the things he would destroy
He had a flickering of flame
from the dust behind his eyes
He carried me through clouds
and dropped me into empty skies

​

Ever creeping,
always sneaking round the corner
Locking doors behind me
after I walk through
Tracked your trail
you're chasing tail, I'm getting warmer
Closer to the truth,
but far away from you

I tried to keep your light
from fading out

​

I'm so scared the darkest side of you
is the only side of you
I ever knew, ever knew
I'm so scared the darkest side of you
is the only side of you
I ever knew, ever knew

​

I'm not sleeping,
hear your breathing in the next room
I know you're not alone

I tried to keep your light
from fading out,
but running to the night
won't save you now.
