Silhouettes

Silhouettes in the yellow moon
Fell a little too hard and they split in two
Raw, a little out of tune
Beautiful and broken, but try not to swoon
Oh you... was disinterested until I heard her say

So nice to finally meet you
Autumn eyes and sweet perfume
My heart might've skipped just a beat or two
That little black dress and those ruby shoes
Okay... was all that I could say
I sense there's heartache on the way

Well, is there something that I could do
Desperate eyes with some attitude
Know I shouldn't but I can't refuse
Stick to the plan but don't follow through
It's true... well he's not home so you can't come in today

Leave me holed up in my room
Sulking on the floor
Devious things do loom
Now you've got to lock the door
Oh but what for? Cuz you can stall
But never keep those wolves at bay
Well, I sense there's heartache on the way

Envy, gluttony, greed and lust
Show me somebody I can trust
Don't care for the people in the background much
Dreaming through the days until I feel her touch
Again... I must sound so insane
Heartache sets in, here comes the pain

She says her head's a mess
Breaking my heart in that same black dress
I want to say that I cannot stress
Enough I guess, I must confess
Oh I'm a little unimpressed, by the way
I still love you to death
Feeling just a little over-dressed
Although she always looked her best
I've got to pass but this is not a test
Still scored higher above all the rest
But it was all in jest
Though that's not to suggest
That I can't feel the strain
The wood is pushing off against the windowpane
Hinges drop and separate the door from its frame
Stand back, the wolves broke through again

Silhouettes in the yellow moon
Danced a little too close and they split too soon
Raw, a little out of tune
Beautiful and broken, trying not to swoon
