It's 12:34 am and I can't stop thinking Seconds pass And as I close my eyes for the tenth time Your face flashes before my eyelids I'm lost in the portrait of your eyes Mesmerized by the curve of your lips Don't get attached... Don't get attached... I hear my name on your tongue The sweetest taste in your mouth you say Those words will be my undoing Let me in I close the door. Draw a line. Create a barrier. Whatever it takes to keep you away But you speak to me through the walls You unhinge the latch Swing open the door Await in the silhouette You've broken in.

Burden
It's 12:34 am and I can't stop thinking Seconds pass And as I close my eyes for the tenth time Your face flashes before my eyelids I'm lost in the portrait of your eyes Mesmerized by the curve of your lips Don't get attached... Don't get attached... I hear my name on your tongue The sweetest taste in your mouth you say Those words will be my undoing Let me in I close the door. Draw a line. Create a barrier. Whatever it takes to keep you away But you speak to me through the walls You unhinge the latch Swing open the door Await in the silhouette You've broken in.
