Dark Circles

lyrics

For every second I've spent
nestled against your chest I'll pay
with countless sleepwalking miles
hundred feet deep in the night.
Since you left I'm keeping the door unlocked
and the lights switched on
letting my bedroom flled with tiny moths.
I wish I could live every night like them
swinging around the light, refusing to close the eyes
even when it burns
So that i might not miss a single moment
analyse all the fragments of a consciousness
without any meaning.

My face stuck on your rib cage
I hear your bones creaking and breaking
under the pressure of my breath.

Keep safe all the regrets
of a life made by eyes
which'll never meet again
fngers which never touched
for few inches
or light years.

and we should know that
there will be always a fall
which outdistances you and me
inventing a different god every day
trying new ways to reach the point

where it's painless to lose every memory

It's killing me,
knowing that you could leave

Yeah, I'm still looking for you
in the marks left on the sand after the last tide
inside this hidden cleft...
In every hand I shake
in the braided hair which tie my wrist to yours...
my face stuck on your rib cage...

I've counted all the cracks in the shiny path
on the way back to your house
feeling the void at each step of mine.
