lyrics

you have a shadow to remind you
there is light pushing through

when your eyes are as dark
as the coldest part of the night
plea with the timing love,
it's only a play of sight
when the rain comes on like bullets to your wind
don't be surprised, it's just the world we're in

I saw your shadow on the back of your back porch falling apart
I saw you come in but I didn't see you coming until you were falling apart

when your eyes are as dark
as the coldest part of the night
plea with the timing love,
it's only a play of sight
when the rain comes on like bullets to your wind
don't be surprised, it's just the world we're in

in the quiet
I want our hearts to beat the same
so when you're dying
we can get out of this place
you were crying
and it meant everything to me
cause in the quiet
I was the thing that let you be

alive
we're alive
