[00:10.32]Watch me read you
[00:12.74]The turning pages of an epic
[00:14.96]Dissected hallucinogenic
[00:16.88]Black coffee addict
[00:18.19]Life, ended lies
[00:19.50]Cold on that metal tray
[00:21.26]Wasting away
[00:22.33]I watch him sneer at me
[00:24.30]From beyond the grave
[00:25.36]I hear him call for me
[00:26.37]Watch me read you
[00:28.53]I get scared when it falls dark
[00:30.74]The creeping shadows up my arm
[00:32.66]The sneaking scarecrows
[00:33.93]Work their charm
[00:34.89]But circumstantial
[00:36.04]The way I blink when you get mad
[00:38.42]Feel disarmed when you get sad
[00:40.59]But turn to run when we fall back
[00:42.45]On old behaviors
[00:44.26]When the flavor turns from sweet to sour
[00:46.98]That’s the hour that I seek
[00:48.63]The heavy hearts
[00:49.59]And tired retreats
[00:50.65]With words of hatred
[00:51.70]Watch it seep through skin
[00:53.02]Like sap through bark
[00:54.40]I cower in the dark
[00:55.47]Til your return
[00:56.41]When will I learn?
[00:58.92]We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[01:02.81]Breathing the smoke from others mouths and lying in the dirt
[01:06.79]So make a promise but then later we can just forget
[01:10.51]It’s hard to let your breath out when your used to holding it
[01:15.05]She’ll go (ohh)
[01:16.86]Got out through the window (ohh)
[01:18.58]It’s her (ohh)
[01:20.54]Maybe it’s a shadow (ohh)
[01:22.31]You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[01:26.38]But when you cry the light reflects and I see you again
[01:30.91]“The beautiful colors of the people’s faces...”
[01:34.48]“And the way they sat on top of those necks”
[01:37.80]Watch me read you
[01:39.11]Like words ripped right off the page
[01:41.63]Another ghost, another day
[01:43.34]Of melancholy, UV rays
[01:45.20]And heavy eyelids
[01:47.31]You just decided not to care
[01:49.47]Compressed your fears
[01:50.69]And cut your hair
[01:51.55]Lifted your shirt
[01:52.42]To find there’s nothing there
[01:53.88]Now read me:
[01:55.01]Red wine, copper stained
[01:56.77]With curly hair and crazy eyes
[01:58.28]Impulsive mouth
[01:59.09]She loves the rain
[01:59.90]But not the dark
[02:00.55]You feel insane
[02:01.27]The overpass is wet with blood
[02:02.61]She turns to you to say
[02:03.62]“Hey. We can’t exist”
[02:06.29]And in that moment, it’s just bliss
[02:09.25]It’s like you’ve missed
[02:10.11]A thousand years and as you kiss
[02:11.52]It’s like you drift
[02:12.69]Between here and there
[02:13.95]Between real and fake
[02:15.96]As I hold my breath I can’t see your face
[02:17.68]Watch me read me,
[02:19.05]Read you, read them, read us:
[02:21.12]Everyone’s a burning book on
[02:22.57]Trust and lust and love and what we are and what we’re made of
[02:25.83]We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[02:29.23]Breathing the smoke from others mouths and lying in the dirt
[02:33.16]So make a promise but then later we can just forget
[02:36.98]It’s hard to let your breath out when your used to holding it
[02:40.87]She’ll go (ohh)
[02:43.22]Got out through the window (ohh)
[02:44.99]It’s her (ohh)
[02:47.05]Maybe it’s a shadow (ohh)
[02:48.97]You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[02:52.85]But when you cry the light reflects and I see you again
[02:56.64]So don’t just see me
[02:58.55]Oh surround me
[03:00.63]It’s getting harder, babe, to focus on just one thing
[03:04.41]It’s enigmatic
[03:06.58]Truly astounding
[03:08.48]The way we stand together
[03:10.33]But we are still drifting
[03:12.31]You are so absent
[03:14.27]But you consume me
[03:16.25]And when the sun goes down the night it wraps around me
[03:20.08]You try to stand still
[03:22.25]I can’t help moving
[03:24.16]You’re like the moon that draws the tide that rushes through me
[03:28.11]We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[03:31.89]Breathing the smoke from others mouths and lying in the dirt
[03:35.72]So make a promise but then later we can just forget
[03:39.71]It’s hard to let your breath out when your used to holding it
[03:43.64]She’ll go (ohh)
[03:45.81]Got out through the window (ohh)
[03:47.63]It’s her (ohh)
[03:49.70]Maybe it’s a shadow (ohh)
[03:51.51]You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[03:55.39]But when you cry the light reflects and I see you again(Ohh)
[04:02.16]I see you again(Ohh)
[04:06.73]I watch you read me
[04:08.59]The burning pages of my life
[04:11.07]Reduced to ash and overnight
[04:13.18]I find my body
[04:14.54]Is not mine
