Hawthorne Heights
Skylark
[Verse 1]
You're like a shimmer on a wave
The sun drags a golden shift
Then you go away
You're like the desert in my veins
The wind will make us bend
But our hearts will never break

[Chorus]
Like coffee on early mornings
Late night struggles
The skylark sings me to sleep
No more dreaming
Just a burding feeling
Then we're in trouble
I swear I'm still yours to keep

[Verse 2]
You're like a ship without an ocean
Time stands still and makes you feel
Like you're stuck in slow-motion
You know it burns 'cause it's supposed to
The sun begins to change our skin
But one day soon, we will glow again

[Chorus]
Like coffee on early mornings
Late night struggles
The skylark sings me to sleep
No more dreaming
Just a burding feeling
Then we're in trouble
I swear I'm still yours to keep
[Bridge]
I give you everything I had
I give you everything
We spend our lives in deep suspense
Trying to find happiness
Another day goes by
I find paradise in my own head
Killing time behind my eyes
The skylark sings sad lullabys
Another day goes by
I find paradise in my own head

[Chorus]
Like coffee on early mornings
Late night struggles
The skylark sings me to sleep
No more dreaming
Just a burning feeling
Then we're in trouble
I swear I'm still yours to keep
