〜VERSE 1〜
We were drunk on desire
as we ran towards the fire
and as we danced with the flames
the smoke invaded our brains
until we weren't thinking straight
and we realized too late
that there's never pleasure without the pain
We were bound to get hurt
when we jumped in heartfirst
the ticking of timebombs
reminds us we're cursed
Cause when the time struck twelve
we'd have to leave this realm
and return to the cruel world as our past selves
〜PRE-CHORUS〜
You said that I made it look so easy
Cold and ruthless as I cut the string tying you to me
But babe I was just bringing us back to reality
It wasn't as easy as I made it seem
〜CHORUS〜
So meet me in the depths of twilight
When the last strokes of daylight fade into night
I'll steal the stars from the sky
to put back the light in your eyes
But sooner or later, you'd have to realize
It wasn't our turn in this lifetime
〜VERSE 2〜
Maybe it was too soon
when I ended it with you
But sometimes we forget
there's a dark side of the moon
When you gamble in the game of love
Many of us will lose
To break or get broken, which do you choose
〜PRE-CHORUS〜
You said that I made it look so easy
Cold and ruthless as I cut the string tying you to me
But babe I was just bringing you back to reality
It wasn't as easy as I made it seem
〜CHORUS〜
So meet me in the depths of twilight
When the last strokes of daylight fade into night
I'll draw a map in the sky
The stars will guide you towards the light
But sooner or later, you'd have to realize
It wasn't our turn in this lifetime
〜BRIDGE〜
We knew all along that we'd have to say goodbye
But somewhere down the road
it's like you blocked it from your mind
Nothing lasts forever when we're living on borrowed time
〜CHORUS〜
So meet me in the depths of twilight
When the last strokes of daylight fade into night
Maybe a shooting star will cross the sky
And you'll get a chance to make things right
And sooner or later you'll realize
That you'll find the one who's meant for you this lifetime
