Ink Under Skin
Sometimes
I just stare at your name
I got a tattoo for you it said
'Too fragile to survive'
But look at it now
It's still there
Cos you'll never see the end until the end
Because
I hold all the history I do
Doesn't mean it's not heavy too
I carry on and on
And do you think we'll ever be the same again?
Is it impossible to mend?
Close your eyes and count to ten
You said we're going nowhere
There's nothing left to win
You thought we'd make it last but
The love you need to show is more than ink under skin
Too long
I've been staring at the sun
I fell so behind I thought I led
The heart can fool the head
So look at me now I'm still here
But is being here the same as being clear?
It's true
You gotta move forward to go back
Gotta go back to carry on
We carry on and on
And now we spend the night in someone else's dream
Try to escape it like McQueen
You wouldn't believe the things I've seen
You said we're going nowhere
There's nothing left to win
You thought we'd make it last but
The love you need to show is more than ink under skin
You said we're going nowhere
There's nothing left to win
You thought we'd make it last but
The love you need to show is more than ink under skin
I just stare at your name
I got a tattoo for you it said
'Too fragile to survive'
But look at it now
It's still there
Cos you'll never see the end until the end
Because
I hold all the history I do
Doesn't mean it's not heavy too
I carry on and on
And do you think we'll ever be the same again?
Is it impossible to mend?
Close your eyes and count to ten
You said we're going nowhere
There's nothing left to win
You thought we'd make it last but
The love you need to show is more than ink under skin
Too long
I've been staring at the sun
I fell so behind I thought I led
The heart can fool the head
So look at me now I'm still here
But is being here the same as being clear?
It's true
You gotta move forward to go back
Gotta go back to carry on
We carry on and on
And now we spend the night in someone else's dream
Try to escape it like McQueen
You wouldn't believe the things I've seen
You said we're going nowhere
There's nothing left to win
You thought we'd make it last but
The love you need to show is more than ink under skin
You said we're going nowhere
There's nothing left to win
You thought we'd make it last but
The love you need to show is more than ink under skin
