Falling Asleep to Anime
Solitaire, alone on a silver string
The light in your bright, flickering eyes
Fades to a subtle glow
Standing at the top of the stairs
Staring down into my insecurities
And all my so-called "imperfections"
Was it wrong for me to search
For something permanent?
Piecing together the evidence
Follow your anguish and let it in
Your persistence only pushes me
Further and further away
Break me over and over
While begging me to stay
Harden my heart, drawing my cards
Watching the stars like a fool
Oh, how long have I been waiting
For some oxygen to fill my lungs? (Empty chest, empty heart)
Praying for the sun to reach my skin (Solitaire)
Hoping that there's more to life
Than all the wrongs I can't make right
And all the things
We thought we left behind
When we hold on
We hold too tight
And you look me in the eye
As you break me
Break me
Break me
Never at the right place
Never at the right time
Oh, how long have I been waiting
For some oxygen to fill my lungs? (Empty chest, empty heart)
Praying for the sun to reach my skin (Solitaire)
Hoping that there's more to life
Than all the wrongs I can't make right
And all the things
We thought we left behind
The light in your bright, flickering eyes
Fades to a subtle glow
Standing at the top of the stairs
Staring down into my insecurities
And all my so-called "imperfections"
Was it wrong for me to search
For something permanent?
Piecing together the evidence
Follow your anguish and let it in
Your persistence only pushes me
Further and further away
Break me over and over
While begging me to stay
Harden my heart, drawing my cards
Watching the stars like a fool
Oh, how long have I been waiting
For some oxygen to fill my lungs? (Empty chest, empty heart)
Praying for the sun to reach my skin (Solitaire)
Hoping that there's more to life
Than all the wrongs I can't make right
And all the things
We thought we left behind
When we hold on
We hold too tight
And you look me in the eye
As you break me
Break me
Break me
Never at the right place
Never at the right time
Oh, how long have I been waiting
For some oxygen to fill my lungs? (Empty chest, empty heart)
Praying for the sun to reach my skin (Solitaire)
Hoping that there's more to life
Than all the wrongs I can't make right
And all the things
We thought we left behind
