While I watch you slip away,
My reflection peeks from behind
I see me in that look
Your puffy eyes,
Your flushed face
Are you ever going to talk to me?
You’re too young to shed that blood
Too young to lose that spark
Still so young that your voice cracks,
Still so young that your hair’s blonde
While I watch life break you,
My heart is wrapped in flames
By blood I want to heal you
My blood, by our shared name

While I watch you slip away,
My reflection peeks from behind
I see me in that look
Your puffy eyes,
Your flushed face
Are you ever going to talk to me?
You’re too young to shed that blood
Too young to lose that spark
Still so young that your voice cracks,
Still so young that your hair’s blonde
While I watch life break you,
My heart is wrapped in flames
By blood I want to heal you
My blood, by our shared name
Long time no see!
