a girl with a halo of fireflies 

walking the line where the ocean meets the sand 

just like she's walking on a wire in the circus  

 

"take the sense of false direction  

take the words out of my head "

she says 

"dripping like a saturated sunrise 

spilling like an overflowing sink  

I'm trapped inside of my own mind 

afraid to open my eyes cause of what I'd find 

and I don't want to live like this anymore. 

I don't need to be reminded what it takes to kill the fun 

I've got a head full of sharp knives  

without a thought, without a voice, without a soul  

don't let me die here. " 

 

"you were my compass star, 

you were my measure,  

just fumbling through the grey 

trying to find another heart that's not walking away 

so just love me like you do  

and just stay, stay, stay. "
