We can't seem to let go The thread's so thin It just doesn't show anymore It seems like we're playing charades Playing like we're afraid to live And this is one sacrifice, I... I don't want to make If there's no end There can be no beginning There can be no beginning If there's no end It feels like forsaking the dawn We awaken and still we don't see But I'm secretly grateful You're living this moment with me We can see where it leads It's like you can't, can't kill The monster that feeds on you No matter what you do It seems to get you every time And that's a predicament If I know anything If there's no end There can be no beginning There can be no beginning If there's no end It feels like forsaking the dawn We awaken and still we don't see But I'm secretly grateful You're living this moment with me Yeah I'm secretly grateful You're sharing this moment with me If it's just one life we're given One time you're living I feel your touch light up a wild desire Borne on my ache to take us ever higher In our love we are birds of prey Every cry serves to lead astray So carry my ache And you will know the feeling Inside I am weak but For this love I'm bearing So breathe your life in my shades of grey Or kill the lights and we'll fade away
