lovers come so very clean
get dirty quick like a machine
wipe away the rust and dirt
back to where we both got hurt
chorus:
i'm telling you my story tonight and i don't care
if you've heard it all before
cause after everything we've done, you owe me this
you are fading already
sometimes you must close your eyes
or the light will never change
red the petals, white the sheets
grey the morning black the pain
[chorus]
and with her i know she will take
the warmth of skin upon her lips
and the touch of fingertips
i stay awake to hear you breathing
i'm not dreaming
[chorus]
