Meg & Dia - Kiss You Goodnight


I don't care to know
The time on the wall
The placement of my shoes on the wood floor

The last boat has left can't carry you afloat
I fear the empty, wet bed
The empty grey coat
And I wont go till you're asleep
You open your mouth
Like an asthma attack, you repeat
"If all that you take from this is courage, then I've no regrets"

I wanted to kiss you goodnight
No longer can pretend
It won't cave in and will be alright
I wanted to save this last light
With dawn comes certainty of what we'll be
For now hold me lightly
(For now hold me light)

I look to the floor
Your hair like cut grass
Your vomit it forms a gold chain round your neck

I wont make you up
No need for last words
These last idle hours
More than I desereve
"..you take from this of all courage, than I've no regrets"

I wanted to kiss you goodnight
No longer can pretend
It wont cave in and will be alright
I wanted to save this last light
With dawn comes certainty of what we'll be
For now hold me lightly

Dont settle for less again
You've become more
Than I could have become for you
Could have inspired to be
Hesitation will leave dents on the walls and the rail
And your scent will leave me with more faith in myself

I wanted to kiss you goodnight
No longer can pretend
It wont cave in and will be alright
Wanted to tell you I lied
I said I'd make I through this world alright, but I dont care to try
I'd make it through this world , but I dont care to try
