Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I′ll feed your soul if you'd just let me in
But I know you won′t
You take pride in cutting out (cutting out) everything we've ever been
Well I'm up in the stars, without a single care
And held in my arms true love and true despair

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Tell me why we walk ourselves in circles
Tell me why we talk in twisted tongues
Carry me away to a place that′s equal
Married to the thought of what′s to come

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

So I'll be your ghost if you′d just let me in
What you need most
Please don't cast me to the wind
′Cus no, no matter where you go I'll follow
I′ll follow (I'll follow)

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Tell me why we walk ourselves in circles
Tell me why we talk in twisted tongues
Carry me away to a place that's equal
Married to the thought of what′s to come

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh, how I know
That this ache in your heart tears you apart, my dear
I know it′s not fair, 'cus escapism is hard when I used to be there

Hold me while I drift off to sleep
Then let the current swallow me
Now that I′ve sunken so deep
There's no escape and no reprieve
Hold me while I drift off to sleep
Then let the current swallow me
Now that I′ve sunken so deep
There's no escape and no reprieve

No, no matter where you go I′ll follow
I'll follow
I'll follow

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Tell me why we walk ourselves in circles
Tell me why we talk in twisted tongues
Carry me away to a place that′s equal
Married to the thought of what′s to come

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh




Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (must to come)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I'm willing to nourish and care for you, but you have to allow me to help


But I know you won't
I understand you're resistant to my offer


You take pride in cutting out (cutting out) everything we've ever been
You enjoy erasing everything that we've built together


Well I'm up in the stars, without a single care
I'm carefree and happy, far removed from the negativity


And held in my arms true love and true despair
I have experienced both genuine love and overwhelming heartache


Tell me why we walk ourselves in circles
Why do we continue to repeat the same mistakes and patterns?


Tell me why we talk in twisted tongues

It's difficult to move on because I once played a part in your life and in your heart


Hold me while I drift off to sleep
Stay with me as I fall asleep


Then let the current swallow me
Let me be carried away by the current of my dreams and thoughts

Now that I'm in too deep

That chorus is amazing

@ashleyeugenidoesart

Wow another great and inspiring lyrics of this song. I'm gonna be always amazed and impressed of the songs you write and upload. I'm really great at listening to lyrics. For me listening songs. I find the way of the words and sentences means a lot to me. Specially when it has great and beautiful meaning. That's what songs should be about to make someone feel, through the heart of words that have worthy to listen because you made effort to write it and it's unique.
