Placing a smile at the perfect event
Gracing your skin with the side of my hand.
If I ever leave I could learn to miss you
But sentimental boy is my nom de plume.
Let me save you, hold this rope
I may never sleep tonight
As long as you're still burning bright.
If I could trade mistakes for sheep
Count me away before you sleep.
I'll stay awake, til I trade my mistakes
So they fade away.
I feel marooned in this body
Deserted, my organs can go on without me.
You can't fly these wings.
You can't sleep in this box with me.
Let me save you, hold this rope
I may never sleep tonight
As long as you're still burning bright.
If I could trade mistakes for sheep
Count me away before you sleep.
I'll stay awake, til I trade my mistakes
So they fade away.
Don't let me save you, hold this rope
Then, I'll pull you in
Cause I am an anchor, save her
Or, feel it sinking in
Let me save you, hold this rope
I am an anchor, sinking her (oh)
I may never sleep tonight
As long as you're still burning bright.
If I could trade mistakes for sheep
Count me away before you sleep.
I'll stay awake, til I trade my mistakes
So they fade away.
