Taught you to linger at the edge of the light
Until our eyes met and we’d dive into the night
This flesh and stone, you made it your home
Then i’d send you back to black, all alone

Hush of the afternoon
Flood of the midnight sun
There’s never enough of us
And our blood will rush
In my head - i think that’s enough
The cure and curse we always rush

We’re always hungry for a love
That even poison can’t fill up

You taunted my fevers
And saw my wild flames
Weighed my shoulders down
And held back the rain
I’ll talk for days and days
Till there’s nothing left
All the colors drained
Living no other way

Hush of the afternoon
Flood of the midnight sun
There’s never enough of us
And our blood will rush
In my head i think that’s enough
The cure and curse we always rush
We’re always hungry for a love
That even poison can’t fill up

I’ll talk for days and days
We’ll drive and lie
And waste some time
Oh, i know the length of
A bruise

Oh all the
Candles at
The fucking altar
I blew out
In honor of you

Oh I let myself die
In my chest
Her prayers still haunt
Me in my bed
Now i cry golden tears
And see the mornings
Alone
It’s as above
So below
