lyrics

/
Where did we lock the words?
I’m stuck on the pavement carrying the crown you should own.
I never noticed we were already warned.
A pledge ain’t a statement but it can fix the things I’ve done wrong.

Have you waited for a day that never comes?
I’m no longer a perfect mould,
Kiss my bruises before they show.
We’re separated by the tears you’ve ever dropped.
I don’t mind if the past is gone, this is something worth fighting for.
Keep your heart awake.

Don’t waste your innocence.
We’ve ruined a true spark and this is gonna hurt every day.
A vicious constant you’re barely listening.
I’m drowning in silence.
Now we cannot change anything.

Have you waited for a day that never comes?
I’m no longer a perfect mould,
Kiss my bruises before they show.
We’re separated by the tears you’ve ever dropped.
I don’t mind if the past is gone, this is something worth fighting for.
How long will we resist?
Hold your breath for a minute.

There’s blood on the ground, we can’t just ignore it. So kill me first.

Let’s break the wheel tonight.
We’ll write a better story.
Pray for it.

This place ain’t a fortress anymore.
Take my hand ‘til the morning comes,
We’ll be safe when the bridges fall.
Be straight, you won’t let the phantoms go.
I don’t care if you pull the rope, you are someone worth dying for.

Caught in a rose haze.
We’ll fall in love again.
I just remember a veiled shape, so carry me there.
And now forget ‘bout the rest.

You can cut the thread.
