Got you shackled in my embrace

We both made the same mistakes

All of the lights land on you, the rest of the world fades from view, and all of the love I see, please, please say you feel it too

I know I should be pickin' up the pieces, but it doesn't really matter

I can't believe I ever breathed without you

Until tonight I only dreamed about you

Now, I've got pins and needles on my tongue, anticipating what's to come, like a finger on a loaded gun

The ones that love me I tend to leave behind

You keep his shirt, he keeps his word

You can hear it in the silence, you can feel it on the way home

Small talk, he drives, coffee at midnight

Life was never worse but never better

Didn't they tell us "Don't rush into things", didn't you flash your green eyes at me ?

Hung my head as I lost the war as the sky turned black like a perfect storm

They are the hunters, we are the foxes, and we run

This love left a permanent mark, this love is glowing in the dark

You kiss my cheek, I watched you leave

Skies grew darker, currents swept you out again, and you are just gone and gone, gone and gone...

Tell her how you must've lost your mind when you left her all alone and never told her why

Someday, when you leave me, I bet these memories follow you around
