well the day ran away with me now
and I buried my eyes in a cloud
she spoke through the noise and the horde
removed arrows I didn't know I wore
but I wanted to need
and your room always smelt so sweet
but the blisters I never recall
as we paint our own gods on the wall
call me a fool
for loving you when I'm not trying to
I haven't been sleeping for
obvious reasons
save all your goodness for
one worth receiving
I hope you sleep well
when you get there
did I play a similar part
in the phrase we both spoke with our hearts
I don't care but please whisper now
was that city I saw just a town
did the lights sing a bloody roar
with the songs of all the lovers from before
or did I compose this dream
out of something you've never seen
call me a fool
for loving you when I'm not trying to
I haven't been sleeping for
obvious reasons
save all your goodness for
one worth receiving
I hope you sleep well
when you get there
