lyrics

Picture what you will
Safety and foreign films
As a light goes on far from here
It’s burning still

These lines, a tortured face
Like shadows in empty space
Lover, I wish you well
But I run like hell

I hope you’re keeping score
I hope you’re keeping score
I hope you’re keeping score
Of the little things that burn us alive

Dawn burns, a twisted silence
As the rain it falls to claim the panic
These bruises I know won’t heal
These hanging ghosts

Hollow as shorelines fade
Like promises so quick to fail us
So scatterbrain, I lose my pace
And burn inside myself

I hope you’re keeping score
I hope you’re keeping score
I hope you’re keeping score
Of the little things that burn us alive
