Lyrics

Lost

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

When everything was broken

The devil hit his second stride

But you remember what I told you

Someday, I'll need your spine to hide behind

For fear of moments stolen

I don't wanna say goodnight

But I'll still see you in the morning

Still know your heart and still know both your eyes

I could have told you 'bout the long nights

How no one loves the birds that don't rise

So you can tell the heroes go hide

My sense of wonder's just a little tired

But if only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

I know you'd never leave me behind

But I am lost this time

Are we destined to burn or will we last the night?

I will hold you 'til I hold you right

But if only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

So we'll run into the open

Keep your hand inside of mine

And then when everything is over

I hope to think of this as better times

The sky got red and swollen

I guess I never see the signs

There can't be songs for every soldier

It can't be solace every time you cry

I could have told you 'bout the long nights

How no one loves the birds that don't rise

So you can tell the heroes go hide

My sense of wonder's just a little tired

But if only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

I know you'd never leave me behind

But I am lost this time

Are we destined to burn or will we last the night?

I will hold you 'til I hold you right

But if only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

I was lost 'til I found you

Now these songs will hold and hide your name

All it was was all about you

Since that night, the moon has never seemed the

Same

And if only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

I know you'd never leave me behind

But I am lost this time

What if the love you deserve is love you never

Find?

I've learned in love and death, we don't decide

And if only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine (aye)
