Shadows
My window opens on your heart,Yet shadows divide our worlds with lossThe light setting in the corner of my room isn't enough,But is it for you?A melody that trails and falls, yet never fully blooms,Plays like an old song that’s just out of tune.
Why can't you just break free?Is it the heat dreams that fevers brought you?
These old shadows [they're just shadows]They turn me like a screwAnd dance the dance of Dante, entreating you
They're just shadows [these old shadows]Won't let me get close to youI'm walking a ghost through the Garden of Eden’s ruinsI’m trying to get through to you.
The light setting in the corner of my roomPlays like an old song that's just out of tuneA melody that trails and falls yet never fully bloomsIs it enough? Well is it for you?
Why won't you just take me?Is it the bee's sting that honey haunts you?Is it the sweet things you fear you'll lose if I get near to you?Before we’re through.
These old shadows [These old shadows]Parade you like a foolYou’re living in dust while a ghost hangs coats on you
These old shadows [They're just shadows]Crocheted and trembling, nudeI’m walking a ghost but I wanna walk next to youI wanna break through to you.
The light setting in the corner of my room isn't enough,Well is it for you?
The light setting in the corner of your roomIt’s more than enough for me and for you.
For me and for you.
