Distant Bodies

I'm so tired of trying to gain my composure

But I swear that I'm fine

Holding on for the stars to realign

And lead your hand to mine

You stole the sun from my eyes, leaving me blind

Since I've craved a light, that only you could provide

Drag my heart through the dirt again

But you'll never know what you do to me

That you'll awaken to this

The brightest colours in my life (you are the words that marry the page)

Leave me in black and white (you are everything, you are nothing)

In black and white

In black and white

(What must I do to make you stay?)

My mind, running on empty

I'm so tired of trying to gain my composure

But I swear that I'm fine

Holding out for the stars to realign

And lead your hand to mine

Absent from every note that my heart sings

I've given it all but you're asking

For more than I've got to give

I can't help feel like you're fading

Away from me

You made me see that I could never be

What you want, what you need

I tried so desperately

This heavy heart is a sinking ship

It'll take the rest of me down with it

The brightest colours leave me in black and white

The brightest colours leave me in black and white

In black and white

Drag my heart through the dirt again

As I fade into a deeper shade of grey

As I fade to a deeper shade of grey

Of grey
