lyrics

What creatures, soft inside a blonde head of hair?
I wish I could see in there,
Drowning, I'm the king of that,
A sailor wears his cap, I wear a big chip on my shoulder
I'm lost, dumb inside your brightness,
I won't put up a fight miss, oh when you light me up
'Cus i'm caught in a shadow to which I can't live up,
Oh in the shadow of our fleeting love

What can I say?
It has always been this way,
Passionately chasing,and always second guessing
Listen, no amount of brightness in the world could ever make me feel,
Like I was more than a burden in your eyes

But did you know how hard I tried, to see the beauty in myself?
Oh I'm afraid I'm running out
But baby in your eyes, most of me is lost,
Another part is found deep down in a shadow of doubt

Oh I'm always falling in love,
Falling a bit too much,
And I'm always the one who lends the heavy crutch,
aching for her touch

What can I say?
I will probably stay this way,
Glowing when my head is high,
And sinking like a setting sky,
Believe me,
I never said that you were not allowed to move on with your life,
It shouldn't hurt and it doesn't anymore

Now I'm thinking then why did I pretend that I was speaking truth,
to say that I got over you?
I only did deny it, but when I looked in your eyes,
I wanted me to still be there, and I wanted you to see me through

Oh I realized that was wrong, holding on to what was gone,
More the fault of me, thinking I was none and that I didn't deserve love,
and so to you I clung

Oh only be friend of mine,
Never ever less or more,
But I wonder now what do you take me for,
Being the one who closed that door...
