lyrics

wake up to a scene, drifting through a dream, staring down an endless hallway and realize you're standing next to me, you're torn from magazines, you untangle angry wires and calm me down so I can finally sleep

I faded with the day, a sunlit masquerade, thought that I might soon catch fire and burn myself alive to feel your shade, my blood's old and grey, every cell and every organ wishes that I knew what you would say

love is like a midnight sky, suffocating in your light, empty like a faded sign, telling you to run

the riot has begun, the angry mob inside my chest makes the weight of every breath feel like a ton, there is only one who hypnotizes with her footsteps and lips that burn me like I touched the sun

a storm over the seas, a thousand more degrees, everyone who thinks they know you has never seen that look you give to me, now's the time to leave, shooting myself into orbit around a little place called Mercury
