signal is subtle, we pass just close enough to touch. no questions, no
answers, we know by now to say enough with only simple words, with only
subtle turns (the things we feel alone for one another) our act of
defiance, we keep this secret in our blood. no papers or letters, we
pass just close enough to touch. we love in secret names we hide within
our veins (the things that keep us bound to one another) until the
last trace and this hope is frozen deep inside my bones and this broken
fate has claimed me and my memories for its own. your name is pounding
through my veins. can't you hear how it is sung? and i can taste you in my mouth before the words escape my lungs. and i'll whisper only once... there is a secret that we keep ( i won't sleep if you won't sleep) | | |
| here's the day you hoped would never come don't feed me violins just run with me through rows of speeding cars the papercuts the cheating lovers the coffee's never strong enough i know you think its more than just bad luck. sleeping pills no sleeping dogs lie never far enough away glistening in the cold sweat of guilt i've watched you slowly winding down for years you can't keep on like this now is as bad a time as any.
there, there, baby it's just textbook stuff it's in the ABC's of growing up now, now, darling oh don't lose your head cause none of us were angels, and you know i love you.
it's okay by me, it was a long time ago. and you know i love you.
