I have seen the warning signs
and I am on that mourning side of lust
I think you're more than I can only carefully observe
If I said I'm fine, then I lied
Cause I hear you from somewhere outside of us
and there's an empty seat beside me that I shamelessly reserve
The sun is gone too soon
Winter is in bloom
The ice was just about melted, too
The ice around you
As it grows stronger, I wait longer
Here you pour your fancy wine
The green is through, I'm feeling on my toes
But then there's this look in your eyes
I tried to say something sly but I froze
You're just like the cold outside
I need to stop getting high, but first:
A few more hits from your pipe
Why won't you let me into your world?

Blood on your tongue
Your words have won
I've been benevolent
But now I'm gone
Ragged edge fades
Lies between the big house where nothing fits
and a big green lawn
that's where I'd sit
For far too long
The colours on my hand
were not enough to paint me
I was indifferent
Is it all the same
If it's shadow or it's shade
lately I've been afraid
Ragged edge fades
I'm turning this into another place
Where I can live
There's nothing around here
Rotten abyss
I thought I knew best, til I retraced my steps
Replaced my debts with heatwaves and cold sweats
and with a few lucky bets
it'll only be a few more years
that I'm caught in this net
There's nothing around here
Rotten abyss

Under Your Sun

Well you got me down
I'm waiting too long
and waning patience is never fun
The blissful distance,
insincerity so clear it weighs a ton
I hope the sea does part for me
cause when my time comes I'm gonna run
I jumped the gun
I was a fool to not think that I was
Under your sun
We could be one, when this is done
Fold me, any fold'll do fine
and cut me in a straight line
and straighten me out
Two halves, it's too bad
this new map is stacked on our old path
I'm nowhere near to you
I'm somewhere in between
A perforated line still identified with the other side of a clean break
Sunlight, covering my eyes
Circling the prize
So I lied, lie down alone
I'm trapped somewhere inside
of an ever-rising tide
So the night flies by
I'm off to hide away from you
but not surprised
to find I'm getting closer to the light that I choose to defy
I must confide, I was wrong to run
I will always be under your sun
