Our shadows dance on the bedroom wall   if only this night could last a little longer   for now I'll hold you close and pretend that I'm not leaving      I know your scars start to feel more sore   on nights like this where I can't bear to face   the fact that I'm not sure which road makes sense to take      It's clear to me that you're the one   who won't tell lies or turn tail and run   I know you're tired of feeling like we're under the gun   just hold on tight my lonely one      This isn't quite what you bargained for   I know it stings to always prop up on someone whose own   selfish heart seems to be the one that's beating      But we would die if we just keep score   just give me time I know it feels like you've put    everything on hold but I swear I'll make this right      Heaven knows I need you here   but hell's stoking up my hopeless fear   oh god please just give this purgatory a little rest
