These countless stars brighten this night between us
yet the obscured path stays hidden
making it all too easy to fall once more
as I make my way away from you
but away from you, keeping this hard-earned silence
is easier said than done.
It's a nightmare, here without you
so wake me up and just lay next to me
I'm just another Adam, unfinished without my Eve
the night before; was it magic, or a mistake
In your eyes
Who am I- savior, or in need of saving?
Will the last words heard be 'I love you'
before my heart bursts into flames?
and can we help but to mean it,
when we hope that they hoped for it
I hope and I pray, but the fool only expects
set up to fail, so pick me back up
but do me this favor, and push me back over
and who would stop to give the time,
when I finally have reason to stop it?
No more of living just to breathe,
and now I'm laughing until I can't
because the roles reverse, now you're on the outside
now save your breath, because I'll steal it a way one day
now see my face
for the first time or the last is up to you
