Hanging In A Void

(album: Not Quite Yours - 2012)

Tonight,
later when the time is right.
Later in the absinthe light,
and the dark moans.

Alone,
only when I'm on my own,
and the smoke gets into my bones,
I come alive.

Breathing slowly
helps me to see what I need to survive.

Take back, take back, everything I heard you say.
You won't decide what chokes my light starting today.
I take back, take back, everything I said I hate.
I will live on without you suffocating me.

Get away,
looking at the mess you made.
Thinking that you're here to stay,
I gave you all control.

I'm going home with my mind and my heart in tow.
Not like the times before, you left me filled with hate.

It's not too late, I still see straight,
it's not too late tonight.

Take back, take back, everything I heard you say.
You won't decide what chokes my light starting today.
I take back, take back, everything I said I hate.
I will live on without you suffocating me.

Hanging in a void, let me go.
I will stay alive, let me go.
Hanging in a void, let me go.
You're choking out my light, let me go!
