Sweet Isolation

I want every bit of you
But how can I be so selfish?
Your past and your future too
But it's not what I read on your lips
When you say you don't want me too
Is it just my ears that heard it?
But there's something in your tone's
Got me staring at my phone
And there's death in the air tonight
It's colder than it should be
In mind but you're out of sight
I just wanna feel you near me
I know it's overdue
But something in your tone's
Got me staring at my phone
Yeah yeah

Carried away, far far up above
Where the vultures scour the earth for remnants of your love
The blue ways heavy on my mind
I'm tryin' so hard just to leave you behind, yeah
It's a weariness that doesn't go away
And the night gets so much harder than the day
An old kite in the strong wind
I feel it in my stomach as your razor cuts the string
This cave is as silent as death
I thought I caught the sound of your breath
The feeling of your fingers as they pressed against mine
But the sublime and the divine play tricks on my mind, yeah
I throw my heart against the wall
And it slides to the ground with a deep and heavy sound
That beats in time with an even deeper love, yeah

I want every bit of you
But how can I be so selfish?
Your past and your future too
But it's not what I read on your lips
When you say you don't want me too
Is it just my ears that heard it?
But there's something in your tone's
Got me staring at my phone
And there's death in the air tonight
It's colder than it should be
In mind but you're out of sight
I just wanna feel you near me
I know it's overdue
But something in your tone's
Got me staring at my phone
Yeah yeah
