lyrics

Waves crash around the bandaged gates,
Of the only house left standing.
The others all rusted away,
That's okay.

Did I tell you what she said to me,
Or have we finally run out of secrets?
I know you think you're dead to me,
But I still think we can fix this,
Maybe tomorrow you could come round,
Maybe tomorrow, have a drink together.
Tomorrow, we'll keep lying to ourselves.
Another day inside this fucking hell.

Let's spend the best years all alone.
Let's live in fear of our telephones.
Let's speak the truth just on our deathbeds.
Make it through another night without a single regret,

Or we can outrun the things we promised,
Go out in flames or just be honest.
Never feel afraid of running,
I'm in love and I'm proud of it.
I don't wanna have to see the curtain.
Make you believe that I'm not hurting.
Do the things you love the most,
You know you can't...

So I'll stitch your love into my jacket,
Just to prove it's not a dream.
You grabbed the mic and threw it at me.
Cos you heard me in my sleep,
Yes, I was whispering that;

I know right now you feel stability's a long time away.
I know the thunder keeps you up so you can't enjoy the rain.
But we'll stay closer and you know,
We'll exterminate the pain.
And we can't look away,
And we can't stop the waves.

But we can outrun the things we promised,
Go out in flames or just be honest.
Never feel afraid of running,
I'm in love and I'm proud of it.
I don't wanna have to see the curtain.
Make you believe that I'm not hurting.
Do the things you love the most,
You know you can't arrest a ghost.

We can outrun the things we promised,
Go out in flames or just be honest.
Never feel afraid of running,
Well, I'm afraid of running!
I don't wanna have to see the curtain.
Make you believe that I'm not hurting.
Do the things you love the most,
You know you can't arrest a ghost.
