I can’t stand your pictures
I see them everywhere
And your voice brings such a mixture
Of longing and despair
But in the shade, I’m hoping
These words will drown you out
But every single letter
Can’t help this looming doubt
But maybe you’ll still come down
To see my face again
Just hurry before hope drowns
Before the story ends
You want, you see
And I just want something to believe
There’s turning in my stomach
I swallowed the bitter pill
And I miss your hands on my skin
Somehow I feel them still
Awakeness is so hopeless
Am I the only lonely one?
But I don’t care what you say
Our story’s just begun
All my dreams are spinning
I see them circle ‘round
I’m sinking, yeah I’m sinking
I know I’m going down
