We talk to the deep of the night. Moving by cigarette light, just waiting for something to spark, but you left me in the dark.
Mastakes that you made in the past, cuts through you like they're glass. There's no words that can paint the longing on your face.
I just want to hold you, keep you in my arms.
You wanted me to go higher, take the chance and explode. You thought I was more than the afterlife.
Life's never clear in a haze, but you feel good in a sway. You're calling me up for a ride. I pick you up. We fight.
I say the futures yours, of you choose and mine won't exist without you. Nothing I say hits your heart. You keep me in the dark.
Don't tell me in my sleep. Don't tell me in dreams. Don't tell me what you see.
Show me with a touch. Show me with some love. Show me you'll stay with me.
You wanted to go higher, take the chance, and explode. You thought I was more than the afterlife.
You're at the edge of your desire, left the story untold...

You thought I was more then the afterlife.
