lyrics

well the candles are making scents as I
remember the few nights we spent together
and the cameras are finally catching them
the games they tend to play with our lives
maybe I just needed some support
you never looked me in the eyes

your invisibility, disguised
but skin dictates, don‘t delegitimize
sadness, stress, and limited time
I can't even walk outside at night
I know I cried, but why would you lie
and sever all ties

i'll never hear you walk over
never a morning kiss goodbye
my fist was subtly glossed over
you never looked me in the eyes

i'll ride your bike across the boardwalk
i'll bang the door, you're sleep on the couch
i'll believe when you say we can talk
surprise on the stairs, a kiss on the mouth
