The Gla** Child - Yesterday lyrics

I'm mostly quiet now, that you are gone and I am back to walking by the river lonely every night We used to burn so bright, but you gave up the fight You reflect the sky, the sweetest rain in your eyes there's nothing left I need as long as you are by my side Can I stay one more night? I'll try to touch you right Oh how we lived in a world of our own with your hands and our words and the sparks in your room you read the sky at night like a map of my wounds You awakened me slowly I opened for you but You've had enough of me and all my misery I'm back to running with the haunted 'cause they won't leave me alone Maybe I should smile I had you for a while But everyone I know is leaving seems like no one will arrive And now the blankness that broods in my mind I am willing to die to remain by your side Close your eyes don't let your feet touch the ground And the stars in the sky to remember us by I touch my skin where your hands used to live, I still feel the echo of your fingerprints, You know my past and my scars all my secrets and wounds You wakened me slowly, I opened for you You've had enough of me and all my misery I'm back to running with the haunted 'cause they won't leave me alone Maybe I should smile I had you for a while But everyone I know is leaving seems like no one will arrive I'm staying up all night chasing bu*terflies I will forever be the girl who tried to jump but couldn't fly I volunteer for sacrifice And I know I'm hard to love but God I hope you know I tried Another day I sleep in pain 'cause these regrets won't to go away A brand new day, how can I find my great escape? Another day I sleep in pain 'cause I still hear the words you said if you don't feel the same I'll stay in yesterday
