February was spent
Sleeping without sheets and
Feeling the wind blow through my hair
Through the window you never fixed
Never fixed and
Just like you bit my lip on our first kiss
I’ll swallow the pill of knowing that
Nothing will be like this
This won’t last
Running hands through your hair
Like running up the stairs
Smoke filling up our lungs
From fires up above
Your eyes lost in mine
Breaking clocks, stopping time
Knowing things will never survive
Sweating out crystal beads
Pearls and diamonds and ivory
And the gold chain you wore round your neck
From the father you’d loved but never met
Those eyes were staring back at me
Blue glass eyes that could break from a string
Fall down your chest and onto the floor
Shattered glass and opened doors
Running hands through your hair
Like running up the stairs
Smoke filling up our lungs
From fires up above
Your eyes lost in mine
Breaking clocks, stopping time
Knowing things will never survive
The blue screens shone so bright
Through the good times, through the lies
I hope that we meet again
In a different life could we stay ‘till the end?
Stay ‘till the end
The end
Stay ‘till the end

Sometimes the sky looks brighter
Sometimes the clouds start to swing
The light is green and bright behind my eyelids
My eyes are wide but I can’t seem to see
In the daytime
In the daytime
One day I’ll go on a journey
To find out what this life of mine means
But right now my heart and soul are burning
A flame to go and wipe my slate clean
In my life time
In my life time
And you
Couldn’t see the things
I saw so clearly
And we
Were watching
TV
On the surface
Of the sea
And there were clouds on strings
like puppets in the breeze
And I, their puppeteer, could barely stand on my knees
Held up by the heat of the sand
Holding onto an earthly hand
On the shoreline
On the shoreline
I feel the sand around my feet, the waves roll into pools beneath
For the first time in days I can breathe
At night the sun sinks into the sea
And the moon comes out for you and me
You and me
You and me
And you
Couldn’t see the things
I saw so clearly
And we
Were watching
TV
And I
Couldn’t feel my bones at all
My nerves were
numbed and gone
I’m never
coming home
I’m never coming home
I’m never coming home
Coming home
Coming home
Coming home

I want to wake up by myself
Tired of reaching out for help
I learned from trust and I learned from fears
From everyone these past ten years
You left broken bottles on my floor
In my bedroom and out the door
Clouds of smoke where I wanted to see
Echoes in my ears of you talking over me
And I’m still healing from the hatred
don’t you know love is overrated?
I want you gone, oh darling, don’t you know
Don’t buy me tickets to your post scream puppet show
ing me off when your friends are around
And turning back when they’re out of town
My knuckles want to break themselves on teeth
Then run and hide in the underneath
Of all your love and all your lies
You spoke from behind midnight eyes
And I’m still healing from the hatred
don’t you know love is overrated?

You’re my daydream
Dopamine and ice cream
Riptides and lost things
Stained shirts and ripped jeans
Till 2 in the morning
You’re right beside me
Technicolor sunshine
Old fears and new lies
Bloodshot bright eyes
Moonlight in day time
Your hand in mine
Underneath the street lights
Fly around in my mind for a while
Make my head and my heart run wild
In my dreams we're falling like doves
Off telephone wires and into love
You’ll say stay so I don’t go
Back then how could we know
How could I forget about you?
Cuz now I’m feeling blue, baby blue
You’re my nicotine
My 1 am shot of Listerine
My milk, sugar, and caffeine
All the things I want and need
Forever and always
Just like the old days
But that moment came and went
With all the afternoons I spent
Walking through the green with you
All the things we couldn't do
Are running through my dreams at night
So baby if it's alright
Fly around in my mind for a while
Make my head and my heart run wild
In my dreams we're falling like doves
Off telephone wires and into love
You’ll say stay so I don’t go
Back then how could we know
How could I forget about you?
Cuz now I’m feeling blue, baby blue
I’m baby blue for you
I'm tried and true for you
Blue for you
New for you
Who else could be this blue for you
Oh
Blue, baby blue, baby blue
baby blue
Oh
In my dreams we're falling like doves
Off telephone wires and into love
You’ll say stay so I don’t go
Back then how could we know
How could I forget about you?
Cuz now I’m feeling blue, baby blue
In my dreams I'm brushing the skies
Off telephone wires and into new lies
Cuz I'm baby blue for you
Are you baby blue for me too?
Now I'm feeling blue, baby
Are you feeling blue, baby?
Now I'm feeling blue, baby
Now I'm feeling blue, baby
Now I'm feeling blue, baby, blue

Don’t forget to get some sleep
Even though I can’t see you in the
morning, I can see you in my dreams
When we’re free will you come see me?
Will you play in the waves?
Will you sway in the breeze?
Smiling while I hold your hand
While our feet are in the sand
All this time I was looking for someone like you
All the late long nights that we’ve been through
All this time I was looking for someone like you
And I hope that you were looking for me too
It gets dark at 4 o’clock and in my dreams I can see
A life of black and grey next to our past lives of green
This is the life I worked for and received
I trapped myself so badly, won’t you please rescue me?
Glad to have you by my side
Through the changes in the tide
All this time I was looking for someone like you
All the late long nights that we’ve been through
All this time I was looking for someone like you
And I hope that you were looking for me too
