Tiny Kingdoms - Stay lyrics

[Intro] Dead for another evening We were sleepless on the ceiling You found your way to my skin and burrowed in I thought I'd never tasted love I'm always so detached But I can feel a movement missing from inside my chest And all the beautiful words you would speak still devour me [Verse 1] I was wrapped up in your veins And stayed suspended and tangled for days Above the deepest divides, we fell with our hands still tied And I thought This is what happens when two hurricanes collide It becomes easier to let go Even when it's everything to hold on tight I don't want to know I don't want to know [Chorus] We were more than just catastrophe Twisting fate lines so you and I could be But I always feel so far away You were where the Atlantic, Pacific agreed to meet Overtaking the ground and flooding into me And you always swept me away And all I want is to stay [Verse 2] You traced paths between the stars Your fingertips created scars But I didn't need the sky when I had the nova in your eyes So this is what happens when I cave in too soon The labyrinth I'm condemned to keeps me light years from you So I don't want to know I don't want to know [Chorus] We were more than just catastrophe Twisting fate lines so you and I could be But I always feel so far away You were where the Atlantic, Pacific agreed to meet Overtaking the ground and flooding into me And you always swept me away [Bridge] I loved that habitat we made The place where we always dreamed awake With you, I was home But there's all this chaos in my blood And I just had to let it go But I, I wanted to stay So just cut your losses and hate me for it But I don't want to know So just cut your losses and hate me for it But I don't want to know I wanted to stay I wanted to stay
