Before you, ward-off ember white Bedside table waiting light Burning through a midnight thunder storm But the convenient ingenuity Of manmade electricity Can't compete with lightning's natural form
So when the darkness's not my doing I pull a match across the brittle black Strip of friction crackeling to life And a candle stands its guard against This sudden void of nothingness Fighting back against the tide o' night
And I can see That we Were shadows dancing on a bedroom wall I can see That we were never real at all
The outline of the almost missed We both timidly dismissed Always blurred the edge of our demise And a kiss disguised in Cold War coat Designed to hide the unexposed Truth we missed to bluff for pretty lies
And I can see That we Were shadows dancing on a bedroom wall And I can see So clearly There's nothing we could do To escape the second fall Oh I can see That we were never real at all
I say the wax don't go deeper than the surface Mhm No expression to show you where the hurt is Just a vague idea of why it wasn't working Mhm I still wish it would've worked
And I can see That we Were shadows dancing on a bedroom wall I can see That we were never real at allTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
