lyrics

i'm walking, down a dark hallway
i can't seem to find my way
i heard your name, i heard your voice
deep in my bones and you're under my skin
and i could taste you within
help me out of here
i'm trapped and lonely
take my by the hand so i can be

your best, your worst
i put you first
but it hurts to know that you'll never know
this curse
my chest feels full
while my mind is full
pooled with pointless wishes
remembering your sweet kisses

your eyes like the universe
one thousand pailing cosmos
you couldn't hit your mark at almost
there's so many options out there
given my last tired breath
finish like the day's end

your best, your worst
i put you first
but it hurts to know that you'll never know
this curse
my chest feels full
while my mind is full
pooled with pointless wishes
remembering your sweet kisses
