There was a kid
In a town full of sin
As lonely as him
When he martyred his skin
That's all I know
I've grown up just like him
Let's take it slow
'Cause I know how it ends
And you are the fire
That burned the leaves
And I hold the line you gave to me
It paved the way
And I wish that we
Could fade to gray
But I don't have the time to stay
You know the truth
You read me like a book
My body is glued
To the feeling of you
Awash with the passage of time, I'm alive
Freed from the passing of mind, I'm alive
And I know that you'll
Be leaving soon
So I'll keep the door open for you
It's cold outside
And our flame will die
While I'm waiting for my wings to fly
We're made by grace
And we swore to stay
I still wait for you to leave this place
I change my mind
There's no time to wait
But I hesitate
'Cause I don't want to make another mistake
