Kill the lights

A perfect silence begging you to speak.
An anchor driving down inside you holding down your feet.

Kill the lights and just start it over, start it over,
Again we'll fake it, we'll beg to make it.
Forget everything we said and just start it over, start it over.
A new spark lights inside me.

Feel it, looming, ready to be heard.
See it, blooming, pulling you aside with anguish.
I fight for inches longing for a better way to end this war.
With subtlety we both implore, a silent wish to be ignored.

Kill the lights and just start it over, start it over,
Again we'll fake it, we'll beg to make it.
Forget everything we said and just start it over, start it over.
A new spark lights inside me. When the world grows cold and feelings die, you forget how it feels to be alive.
Then the seasons change to perfect skin and shining eyes.
Reminding you of warmth you felt inside.

So passionate.
You fashion what you want.
So deceptive.
It's almost like you're out to fool yourself.
You believe you'll wreck yourself and not have to concede.
A million lies, they'll counter back with fear and painful eyes.

Will this anchor drown a man who won't cut it loose,
No matter how fast he keeps sinking.

Kill the lights and just start it over, start it over,
Again we'll fake it, we'll beg to make it.
Forget everything we said and just start it over, start it over.
A new spark lights inside me.
