I have stars on my walls
Watch them fade with me
Lie, in my bed
So I don't have to wake up alone
Let me spend a day in your head
It sounds like a wonderland
Let me escape into your words
I want to hide in what you wrote
I am terrified
I'm lying exposed to you
You have my secrets
All in one book
The fear is gone
I now dance in that fire
I kick up the ashes
And let it snow your whispers
It's dangerous, this game we play
Are we quiet enough
To escape his hearing?
The paranoid by-product of our affairs
Tell me it's worth it
Is it worth lying to the other
We love
Will we end in flames?
Melodies fill your longing voice
Even without you singing to me
Fill my ears with that siren song
Fill my mind with your meanings
Alone, alone, alone
I'm pressing these boundaries
Sing for me
Sing me my lucid tune
Jynx will never sound the same
Not after your lips
Have formed its shape
And loved its sound
We can't ever go back
So why bother looking?
My future looks brighter
Brighter than these plastic stars
Hold me hand and lead me
To the place we can dream
Strawberry fields never last forever
And neither does high school
A promise will forever be a promise
Despite the lying mouth
It stole itself from
Love me, love me
Here we are again
Passing words to one another
Equivocating with what we say
I'm for your eyes only
Pull apart my skin
To get to that beauty within
Recount what we've done
Just to spark up my heart
At the end, will we still be standing?
I pray we will
I have a distance to walk
To see that face, feel those hands
The stars are dark
It's time to shut my eyes
To dreams of you I keep secret
Bonsoir, mon amant
