You make me want to cling to you
Tight fingers wrapping round and pulling closer
One more drink till baby's doom
And it couldn't feel any better
Soft whispers elevate
And your voice pulls me back to the ground.

I looked at you and it felt peaceful
To open my eyes for the first time
I want to be a part of whatever this is
I want to stay awake until my eyes close themselves
And I can rest back in your arms
My mind racing
But these thoughts don't hurt me,
Those dreams taste sweet

Then the smoke covered my eyes
Enveloped by your hands I gave myself
And I wanted to, it felt good
Edging ever closer to tipping point
You pulled me right back
This feels like the first time
And it feels real
You pulled my head out of the clouds
And now I live in that silver lining
