You're looking cold, you're
looking stiff my dear i wonder if
you even feel me, while i enlarge
my lungs upon your chest as i am
breathing. It's been so long
since it was new but thats got
nothing to do with... all the
silence in a room and our
expressionless stares that never
change. I swore it wouldnt happen
and i promised that it wouldn't be
like... all the broken smiles and
broken lines of conversation that
they hate.
Your heart beat
falls asleep, as your eyes fall
victim to a hazy glaze and you lie
there next to me. And i hear
nothing.
It's plenty warm in
here but i can still see the frost
on your lips. My words upon your
skin were never less than
everything you loved. It's been
so long since it was you who i
could say without a doubt...could
take my hand and take my heart and
make it lighter than the air
itself.
Your heart beat falls
asleep, as your eyes fall victim
to a hazy glaze and you lie there
next to me. And i hear nothing.
So lets decide what we're
doing here cause i swear we died
the day we turned out backs and we
walk the ground beneath these cold
dead feet while we know we lie
with every kiss goodnight.
Goodnight yeah. Goodnight.
Everything we weren't was
everything we should have said,
her heart is leaking out while
yours is bleedin'. Everything we
weren't was everything we should
have done. Her heart is bleeding
out while yours is freezin'.
