Your eyes will always touch me
In a way that I know your hands never will
And now the distance cuts me
So I’m begging for scars so I’ll know I can heal

These open wounds needs closure
But it’s the bleeding that reminds me I’m alive
Whatever this is it’s torture
I want to see you, but can’t bare to be by your side

I love to think that you still think of us
So I’m not the only one that’s still in love

The things you say and the things you left unsaid
**** with my head
We’re perfect strangers and we’re still the best of friends
Just makes no sense
I have to believe I knew you
That I could close my eyes and see right through you
Just tell me once I was the only one
And tell me how to live now that it’s done

Past and present swirl around me
Thoughts of all I’ve done and where it might have led
Love and hate, anger and grief
Storming emotions only force me to see red

Eyes so green, memories so blue
Yellow days gave way to grey nights full of foolish truth
Winter revealed the fire in you
I got caught in the flames thinking I was fireproof

I love to think that you still think of us
So I’m not the only one that’s still in love

The things you say and the things you left unsaid
**** with my head
We’re perfect strangers and we’re still the best of friends
Just makes no sense
I have to believe I knew you
That I could close my eyes and see right through you
Just tell me once I was the only one
And tell me how to live now that it’s done
