I am shipwrecked in the night
I watched a girl with eyes like thin ice
Say Dive into these pools of blue
But I tripped over you
I curse these cool whispering lights
I curse the things that keep me from you
Again my patience makes the climb
Will my tears buy me time?
In your light I crumble, forgot what Id been told
I never thought that I could feel so old
Youre at the center of everything I do
Wherever I go, Ill walk the last mile with you
I heard you say Dissolve in my arms
And run to fall in these meadows
But youre just a memory
From a mocking old dream
But I cling to my dreams
Im drawn to things that kill me
Its safer to pretend
But Ill deceive myself again
I your light I crumble, forgot what Id been told
I never thought that I could feel so old
Youre at the center of everything I do
Wherever I go, Ill walk the last mile with you
Ive seen the whole world turn to gold
Its just like a fairground ride
Sometimes it turns out
That the tyrants are the pearls
Youll always know, someone loves you in this world
I want to burn like I burn
I want to burn like I burn
I wake up in the harsh light
Spilled my heart in a cold night
Ive got too much time to kill
I wrote youre name upon my wall
I your light I crumble, forgot what Id been told
I never thought that I could feel so old
Youre at the center of everything I do
Wherever I go, Ill walk the last mile with you
