I've been here by myself
Can barely make it through the day
You carry on like nothing
Like you never wanted to stay
We're painfully silent
We're strangers, me and you
Utterly alienated
As if everything's brand new
The painful distance grows
And soon you'll be gone for good
But how can I speak a word to you
When I'm sat and you are stood?
I'm desperate, begging on my knees
Tell me if you feel the same
Cause I'm lying on the cracked floor boards
Soaking up all your pain
I just can't take it anymore
Take off that stupid mask
Give me tonight and I'll leave you alone
Forever, if you ask
Show me the sun, give me the moon
Bring me to the stars
Let me feel the smooth of your skin
And run my hands along your scars
Please pretend, only this once
Like nothing ever changed
I need to hear your ragged breath
To numb me of the pain
And when morning comes, I won't speak a word
I'll lead you out the door
But no matter how fast you drive away
I'll still be hoping for more...
