The Shadow of You

All of these lights
They sounded so close
When the world was so wrong
You tamed the storm
Hold on

Between every move
When we adopted the holes
We named every leak
I held you close

Hold on
We’ll wait this through
How’er long
It takes with you
All I know is

When the grave hit the ground
And we dug down
Each finding our vice
Slipping ever more close
Hold on

Carrying the decimals
Speaking clumsy codes
Combing online accounts
But we made it out

Cause I don’t wanna wake up
Earth can’t stir us

With all the tragedy
Befallen blood, floods, and falling
You’re the net I need
Keeping me so still now I can sleep

Every day that’s ceased since I first reached for someone or something
Lies lost in the shadow of you
