The Garret

The light of our lives burns down Waiting for hours and hours Our hunger is just a hum Another distraction But in your arms I feel lost and torn Call to a silent room The answer comes so crystal It's not like you need to learn We're tied to each other In your arms I feel a stranger faith Forget the countless ways I am so alien, a prisoner in skin Our bodies break like glass And shatter all our fears I want to know you then When heaven disappears Tears in your heart remain And nothing I do could ever undo But I want to stay halfway the same Now I fear you're drifting beyond me The words I say don't say The touch is what I need You take my youth away And leave me with no need When I leave you, I can't leave you Part of me remains In the garret above, it was never enough --- The Garret - The Pains of Being Pure at Heart
