She would forgive a truth
If you'd lift her with a smile, like
You used to do
She would bring the cuffs to you
Just to make you stay a while, as if you
Wanted to
So lie down, sleep around
Hearts bending now will break
Your light shattering my calm
A life sentence in your arms
Breathe in now, breathe out
A touch that suffocates
Sirens wailing in alarm
A life sentence in your arms
His arm reads like a prison cell wall
Scratching days down as they pa**, not
Recalling them all
His thoughts they twist and turn
Investing everything in her and not
Expecting a return
Will that be good enough for her?
So lie down, sleep around
Hearts bending now will break
Your light shattering my calm
A life sentence in your arms
Breathe in now, breathe out
A touch that suffocates
Sirens wailing in alarm
A life sentence in your arms
So lie down, sleep around
Hearts bending now will break
Your light shattering my calm
A life sentence in your arms
Breathe in now, breathe out
A touch that suffocates
Sirens wailing in alarm
A life sentence in your arms
