In The Shadows

(album: Your Starry Eyes Will Never Make Us Even - 2012)

A few more breaths that you can't count
At least not on me
If you'd shut your eyes, I'd shut my mouth
Cuz you mean nothing to me
And I would lift you up
So I could let you fall cuz I
Was going nowhere from the start
And nowhere's where it ends

And I will leave you in shadows
Of where I used to be
You won't be afraid
But I was wrong

I lived so you wouldn't be alone
But you deserve better than this,
Better than this!
Don't you know?

A few more lessons you can count,
If I said
We were missing all the points
But still had it all
And I would let you know
How the story goes, and how...
And how it starts and where it ends
With everything you said…

And I will leave you in shadows
Of where I used to be
You won't be afraid
But I was wrong

I lived so you wouldn't be alone
But you deserve better than this,
Better than this!
Don't you know?

And don't you know the hate that's on my heart is from your hands,
When you let it go,
I guess it's all in the way you suffer for my love,
You better let it go

Before it gets the best of you,
And who wins,
When we both lose a lot,
I loved you,
At least so I thought
But I was wrong!

I lived so you wouldn't be alone
But you deserve better than this,
Better than this!
And I deserve to be alone!
To be alone!
Cuz you deserve better than this!
You deserve better than this,
Don't you know?

It's all in the way you suffer...
