There were 100 people Complete strangers And they might as well have been shadows The room might as well have been void of light Because I close my eyes and there is only you Burned to the back of my lids I tell this story about the way you never leave my mind And the way I couldn't hide it if I tried My fingers bleed My heart has found a new home in my stomach And you're still the only thought That my mind can find peace next to Here is where suffering smiles And the grass is green under all of our foot steps And war doesn't stand a chance Not even if it is all we have left

The Cafe
There were 100 people Complete strangers And they might as well have been shadows The room might as well have been void of light Because I close my eyes and there is only you Burned to the back of my lids I tell this story about the way you never leave my mind And the way I couldn't hide it if I tried My fingers bleed My heart has found a new home in my stomach And you're still the only thought That my mind can find peace next to Here is where suffering smiles And the grass is green under all of our foot steps And war doesn't stand a chance Not even if it is all we have left
