Only
(专辑: Holding On, Holding Out - 2015)
If it was only in our heads, only in our dreams Nothing we ever spoke of, nothing evergreen You know I
dreamed we were hunted by lions, thirsting for red So we hid out in the
brambles, played like we were dead Never terrified of what that might mean Why is it clinging to life, this longing that should now be dead? Why do I
need you, feeling your claws in my back? I
got a
few ideas, and an image of you in my bed If it was only a
mirage, a
hopeless scene Nothing close to water, nothing so serene You know I
dreamed we were walking a
wire across a
ravine Locked in on each other, then I
hear you scream But I
never saw you open your mouth Why is it clinging to life, this longing that should now be dead? Why do I
need you, feeling your claws in my back? I
got a
few ideas, and an image of you in my bed If it was only for the
foolish, decision to careen Nothing that you walk from, nothing so clean You know I
dreamed of the
end of the
world, that old nightmare routine I
found you in a
closet with you mother's old tureen You said here's one fear I
had not confirmed Why is it clinging to life, this longing that should now be dead? Why do I
need you, feeling your claws in my back? I
got a
few ideas, and an image of you in my bed I
got two ideas, and an image of your claws in my back
