lyrics

lift my fingers up to my face
never admit that i feel out of place
you are sleeping in our bed
and i can't live with the things that you said

it's dark in our house when you're on your own
we've learned how to fear the place we call home
you break down my walls, you break down the door
i don't think i could stand to be broken anymore

i don't know what safety could rest in your arms
i believe you when you say that you don't mean me any harm
if you want something from me, all you have to do is ask
i don't need an explanation, i can forgive you for your past
all i'm asking is a sign that i can maybe recognize
you cut a couple coupons while you speak of cutting ties
at night your voice calls out to me but i don't know where to go
we are lurching towards extinction with the days of radio

lift your fingers up to my face
ask you quietly if you feel out of place
you tell me the truth and then you start to cry
i hold you close and i'm so hungry i could die

so hungry i could die
so hungry i could die

i don't know what beauty could slip through your self
like a wave of paranoia for the book left on the shelf
if you seek a higher calling you could give yourself to god
but if you're shaken to your spirit then you only smile and nod
when i touch you my hands spark just like the horrors of my dreams
and i try to hold you tighter like i don't know what it means
we hide inside all winter, praying it will snow
we are searching for extinction with the days of radio
