We Had A Pact

(álbum: Creeper - 2014)

The sky was hung with brazen stars, like Christmas lights on trees
You hung out too till the morning came, till the sun fell in on me
And all of our highs can't erase
Our lows in these darkening days

Ferris wheels and night time bars, we live on separate times
Our peers around us grew up so dull that we left our lives behind
The weight of your crystal heart
The train ride that sets us apart

And I held you for a moment
Lost "like tears in the rain"
And you slept upon the sofa
And I never slept again
(I'm tired)

You're making out in your fathers car, we're making out I'm fine
I saw you out at the show last night I just ignore you all the time
Mary, look what they've done to me
This world has turned on me
And now I drink the life I taste

The cracks in the walls disappear
The days turn to weeks, turn to years

And I held you for a moment
Lost "like tears in the rain"
And you slept upon the sofa
And I never slept again
(I'm tired)
And I never slept again
(I'm tired)

Well my mind goes blank and my eyes roll back
When I'm sober I don't know what to say
I'll text you miserable things when I'm out drinking
And then lay cringing all the following day
I want to disappear when we end up here
Conversation just becomes such an ache
We're only vulnerable to those who approach us
Until they realise there's no heart to break

And I held you for a moment
Lost "like tears in the rain"
And you slept upon the sofa
And I never slept again
(I'm tired)

And I held you for a moment
Lost "like tears in the rain"
And you slept upon the sofa
And I never slept again
(I'm tired)

Mary, look what they've done to me
This world has turned on me
And now I drink the life I taste
