I will always be
A step closer
And a word short
Of falling in love
With all this movement making me
Weak at the knees
Oh, just sleep alone tonight
And imagine my heart beat
Racing at the thought of you
And every word you said to me
Bleeding into my veins
Until I'm screaming out
Screaming out for air
And you make me breathe
Again
Until all my words
And all my sins
Come pouring out
And I am pure in you
Oh, just sleep alone tonight
And know that I'm thinking of you
Because my drunken words
Are your sober thoughts
And I'm fumbling at the piano
Just trying to get these words right
But my voice will never be
Anything close to beautiful
And my words are nothing more than ink
And empty angst
Can you feel me breathe?
