| Now I have scratched beneath the surface
|
| And I really must confess
|
| If you’re not with me in my dreams
|
| Then I’ll never sleep again…
|
| I will never sleep again…
|
| Lover, she had eyes like no other…
|
| But now she looks straight through me
|
| As her gaze it meets anothers
|
| Brother, am I now just like the others?
|
| Cast out to the cold with no embrace from another…
|
| Well, what if we were to burn
|
| Would we burn together
|
| And would it really change a thing?
|
| Cause you set yourself alight
|
| And we both went down in flames
|
| Now it feels like I am losing all control
|
| She said «there's the door if this is getting too much for you»
|
| But we both knew I couldn’t leave if I wanted to…
|
| Well, what if we were to burn
|
| The lights outside they shined so bright
|
| But you’ve doused the flame in me
|
| And they’ve all but died
|
| And now I can see
|
| The forest for the trees
|
| Tell me how I am supposed to believe in myself
|
| When you don’t believe in me…
|
| Oh, I’m an emotional wreck
|
| She sold my soul to the devil
|
| And then discarded the rest
|
| She sang a sirens song for absolution
|
| Swear it always plays out to the same conclusion
|
| Left alone, left alone again
|
| Cause time with her is never time well spent
|
| She still meant everything to me
|
| But without her here
|
| I think Iʼll find my peace
|
| Iʼm finally at peace
|
| I finally found release
|
| Well, what if we were to burn
|
| Would we burn together
|
| And would it really change a thing?
|
| Cause you set yourself alight
|
| And we both went down in flames
|
| Now it feels like I am losing all control
|
| She said «there's the door if this is getting too much for you»
|
| But we both knew I couldn’t leave if I wanted to…
|
| Now you have faded from my thoughts
|
| I can finally sleep again… |
