lyrics
the darkest blanket
Walking backwards from the sunset
nervous trying to draw my breath back
some things you said, they'll never change
and then I came and seized you by your words
times I've known you, your flesh on my flesh
drowned in our buzzing, breathless breath
eclipsing headlights, the sirens singing
what was that thing I tried to get right?
soon
you'll
take me back
blood-filled faces, fists on tables
they pile the questions, brick on brick
the pale white walls, they're closing in
the darkest blanket wraps around my skin
knew your shadow, like a tattoo
on my mind, always stuck in sight
you took my breath, my will you trapped
mind now i came and took it back
soon
you'll
take me back
Walking backwards from the sunset
nervous trying to draw my breath back
some things you said, they'll never change
and then I came and seized you by your words
times I've known you, your flesh on my flesh
drowned in our buzzing, breathless breath
eclipsing headlights, the sirens singing
what was that thing I tried to get right?
soon
you'll
take me back
blood-filled faces, fists on tables
they pile the questions, brick on brick
the pale white walls, they're closing in
the darkest blanket wraps around my skin
knew your shadow, like a tattoo
on my mind, always stuck in sight
you took my breath, my will you trapped
mind now i came and took it back
soon
you'll
take me back
