lyrics

Our beautiful bodies combined, naked and bare like art; we are admirable, we are precious and pure.

But like art we are fragile and the paintbrush it is made up of honesty and pain and a surgical knife because I cut open my chest to give to you my heart and the blood it has stained both my mind and your hands.

Don’t let me down and don’t let me fade because that heart resting in your hands is still beating today and only your touch can keep this blood flowing through my veins.


It’s all background noise except for you and I feel myself falling faster
I am scared I might hit the ground before my time because every candle I’ve ever lit has been put out before it burned out

And I go to sleep each night with this fear scratching at my mind that you won’t be there when I wake and the background noise will forever stay focused

And I drink this wine; to forget that I have lost everything I thought was mine
But I will try to keep this flame alive because it needs to burn to get me through each night

And I trust your voice, and that beautiful smile, and the way you wrap your arms around me tight
This love is pure and it can’t be defined, I thought nothing had a purpose because we are born to die
Until I looked into your sea-green eyes, and my life finally became mine
