our healin' mark was reached
|
above this floodlit street
|
beneath a sliver moon
|
undone
|
|
leaning with intent to fall
|
your gaze a perfect blade
|
my hand, a shadow
|
drawn
|
|
These secrets come and go
|
but every secret knows
|
it's better to ravish
|
than to hold
|
|
are we right back where we were?
|
or just right where we are?
|
can't see it for the stars
|
but we'll know it when it's gone
|
|
No one the wiser
|
No one the wiser
|
|
the healin' deals been struck
|
pain is shit-out-o'-Iuck
|
neither one of us, too tired to love
|
|
just tired of bleedin' stones
|
just tired of crashin' slow
|
Forever shoulda' known
|
|
no one the wiser
|
no one the wiser
|
no one the wiser
|
|
do ya' feel our ghost in every stitch?
|
do ya' hear our ghost in every word?
|
are you my ghost?
|
or am I yours?
|
one thing for sure
|
time is gonna' soothe these shattered
|
eyes
|
time is gonna' heal things out of turn
|
time is gonna' mark the place to start
|
but leave the ending for yourself
|
|
no one the wiser
|
no one the wiser
|
