At night when our voices are gone The flame-thrown silhouettes line the wall We have nothing left to say ‘Cause we use some terrible words To get such subtle rewards That never seem worth it to me
They say that all that we are We can’t change And I say that all that we are Is dark matter anyway So just pray With me
You and I keep falling further away It’s become a ritual We stare like strangers straight through each other into the wall
And you say When your lies and your mouth come unfurled From the cage, theoretical stones That mean nothing But they go straight through me ‘Cause we use some terrible words Which always sends me crippled into flight
You say it’s not too late We can change I say hurry up And help me touch the ground tonight Please say the words
You and I keep falling further away It’s become a ritual We stare like strangers straight through each other into the wall (x2)
Do you ever think you could erase the things I’ve said? The bitter words that you ripped from the wounds inside your head I wanna see the blood rush back into your face The last thing I ever wanted to do was hurt you this way
