lyrics

She's written on the skin of my eyelids
And she never lies
She's carved in the flesh of my heart now
And we can never part
he stands firm in the cold wind
Without fear or disdain
For when black holes have swallowed the universe
Her beauty will remain

We'll dance on the sun and the moon yeah
Like gods on the loose
We'll watch over worlds and futures
And spare the ones we choose
Her eyes cast shadows one me
Her hair's a dark flame
And I swoon in the wake of her mercy
For I'm feeling so lame

The features on your face get blurry
Your hand disappears from view
And all that was once gay and happy
Is slowly turning blue
Oh, but it feels like many years
Have been taken of my back
Feels like a weight off my heels
No more do my bones crack

You gave me tour life for to bury
Just to get rid of you
You made it so peaceful and easy
Yes I'm afraid it's true
Oh and now I can't do nothing
To steer away from this bane
The last straw we had is now breaking
Yet your beauty, it will remain

The words that we say sound so hazy
I cannot hold you back
I'm scared by the light of day
By the wailing voices in my head
