Shadows |
| My window opens on your heart |
| Yet shadows divide our worlds with loss |
| The light setting, in the corner of my room |
| Isn’t enough, but is it for you? |
| A melody that trails and falls, yet never fully blooms |
| Plays like an old song |
| That’s just out of tune |
| Why can’t you just break free? |
| Is it the heat dreams, that fevers brought you? |
| These old shadows (they're just shadows) |
| They turn me like a screw |
| And dance the dance of Dante, entreating you |
| They’re just shadows (these old shadows) |
| Won’t let me get close to you |
| I’m walking a ghost, through the Garden of Eden’s ruins |
| (I'm tryna get through to you) |
| The light setting, in the corner of my room |
| Plays like an old song that’s just out of tune |
| A melody that trails and falls yet never fully blooms |
| Is it enough? |
| well is it for you? |
| Why won’t you just take me? |
| Is it the bee’s sting that honey haunts you? |
| Is it the sweet things you fear--you'll lose |
| If I get near, to you? |
| Before we’re through… |
| These old shadows (These old shadows) |
| Parade you like a fool, you’re living in dust |
| While a ghost hangs coats on you |
| These old shadows (They're just shadows) |
| Crotcheted and trembling, nude |
| I’m walking a ghost but I wanna walk next to you |
| I wanna break through to you |
| The light setting in the corner of my room |
| Isn’t enough, well is it for you? |
| The light setting, in the corner of your room |
| It’s more than enough, for me and for you |
| For me and for you |
