Lyrics
shadows dance around your face
like the angels that whisper when you walk
and travel thousands of miles to hear you talk
but what am I supposed to say
when I pray for you
oh and time will freeze like cars in December
hold yourself upright don't you ever pretend
to be real, even your thoughts are made of plastic wheels
bridges break like the lies through which your dark eyes now stare
oh I'm not the first to have ever been broken
I'm not the first to be put back together again
you're not real, even your heart is made of stainless steel
now I'm alive and I'm not so sure you ever were
dark eyes are rapping at my door
and rotting in my brain
and wild thoughts that I cannot ignore
are begging me to say
that you can stay
this is your home
you can stay
oh you are home
dark eyes are rapping at my door
and rotting in my brain
and wild thoughts that I cannot ignore
are begging me to say
that you can stay
this is your home
you can stay
oh you are home
this is our home
