[00:10.32] Watch me read you
[00:12.74] The turning pages of an epic
[00:14.96] Dissected hallucinogenic
[00:16.88] Black coffee addict
[00:18.19] Life, ended lies
[00:19.50] Cold on that metal tray
[00:21.26] Wasting away
[00:22.33] I watch him sneer at me
[00:24.30] From beyond the grave
[00:25.36] I hear him call for me
[00:26.37] Watch me read you
[00:28.53] I get scared when it falls dark
[00:30.74] The creeping shadows up my arm
[00:32.66] The sneaking scarecrows
[00:33.93] Work their charm
[00:34.89] But circumstantial
[00:36.04] The way I blink when you get mad
[00:38.42] Feel disarmed when you get sad
[00:40.59] But turn to run when we fall back
[00:42.45] On old behaviors
[00:44.26] When the flavor turns from sweet to sour
[00:46.98] That’s the hour that I seek
[00:48.63] The heavy hearts
[00:49.59] And tired retreats
[00:50.65] With words of hatred
[00:51.70] Watch it seep through skin
[00:53.02] Like sap through bark
[00:54.40] I cower in the dark
[00:55.47] Til your return
[00:56.41] When will I learn?
[00:58.92] We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[01:02.81] Breathing the smoke from others mouths and lying in the dirt
[01:06.79] So make a promise but then later we can just forget
[01:10.51] It’s hard to let your breath out when your used to holding it
[01:15.05] She’ll go (ohh)
[01:16.86] Got out through the window (ohh)
[01:18.58] It’s her (ohh)
[01:20.54] Maybe it’s a shadow (ohh)
[01:22.31] You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[01:26.38] But when you cry the light reflects and I see you again
[01:30.91] “The beautiful colors of the people’s faces...”
[01:34.48] “And the way they sat on top of those necks”
[01:37.80] Watch me read you
[01:39.11] Like words ripped right off the page
[01:41.63] Another ghost, another day
[01:43.34] Of melancholy, UV rays
[01:45.20] And heavy eyelids
[01:47.31] You just decided not to care
[01:49.47] Compressed your fears
[01:50.69] And cut your hair
[01:51.55] Lifted your shirt
[01:52.42] To find there’s nothing there
[01:53.88] Now read me:
[01:55.01] Red wine, copper stained
[01:56.77] With curly hair and crazy eyes
[01:58.28] Impulsive mouth
[01:59.09] She loves the rain
[01:59.90] But not the dark
[02:00.55] You feel insane
[02:01.27] The overpass is wet with blood
[02:02.61] She turns to you to say
[02:03.62] “Hey. We can’t exist”
[02:06.29] And in that moment, it’s just bliss
[02:09.25] It’s like you’ve missed
[02:10.11] A thousand years and as you kiss
[02:11.52] It’s like you drift
[02:12.69] Between here and there
[02:13.95] Between real and fake
[02:15.96] As I hold my breath I can’t see your face
[02:17.68] Watch me read me,
[02:19.05] Read you, read them, read us:
[02:21.12] Everyone’s a burning book on
[02:22.57] Trust and lust and love and what we are and what we’re made of
[02:25.83] We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[02:29.23] Breathing the smoke from others mouths and lying in the dirt
[02:33.16] So make a promise but then later we can just forget
[02:36.98] It’s hard to let your breath out when your used to holding it
[02:40.87] She’ll go (ohh)
[02:43.22] Got out through the window (ohh)
[02:44.99] It’s her (ohh)
[02:47.05] Maybe it’s a shadow (ohh)
[02:48.97] You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[02:52.85] But when you cry the light reflects and I see you again
[02:56.64] So don’t just see me
[02:58.55] Oh surround me
[03:00.63] It’s getting harder, babe, to focus on just one thing
[03:04.41] It’s enigmatic
[03:06.58] Truly astounding
[03:08.48] The way we stand together
[03:10.33] But we are still drifting
[03:12.31] You are so absent
[03:14.27] But you consume me
[03:16.25] And when the sun goes down the night it wraps around me
[03:20.08] You try to stand still
[03:22.25] I can’t help moving
[03:24.16] You’re like the moon that draws the tide that rushes through me
[03:28.11] We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[03:31.89] Breathing the smoke from others mouths and lying in the dirt
[03:35.72] So make a promise but then later we can just forget
[03:39.71] It’s hard to let your breath out when your used to holding it
[03:43.64] She’ll go (ohh)
[03:45.81] Got out through the window (ohh)
[03:47.63] It’s her (ohh)
[03:49.70] Maybe it’s a shadow (ohh)
[03:51.51] You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
[03:55.39] But when you cry the light reflects and I see you again(Ohh)
[04:02.16] I see you again(Ohh)
[04:06.73] I watch you read me
[04:08.59] The burning pages of my life
[04:11.07] Reduced to ash and overnight
[04:13.18] I find my body
[04:14.54] Is not mine
[00:10.32] Watch me read you
[00:12.74] The turning pages of an epic
