Walk the Last Mile

I am shipwrecked in the night

I watched a girl with eyes like thin ice

I dive into these pools of blue

But I tripped over you

I curse these cruel whispering lights

I curse the things that keep me from you

Again my patience makes the climb

I wear my tears by the time

In your light, I crumble

Forgot what I've been told

I never thought that I could feel so old

You're at the center of everything I do

Wherever I go, I'll walk the last mile with you

I heard you say "Dissolve in my arms, learn to fall

In these meadows," but you're just a memory

From a mocking old dream

But I cling to my dreams

I'm drawn to things that kill me

It's safer to pretend

But I'll deceive myself again

In your light, I crumble

Forgot what I've been told

I never thought that I could feel so old

You're at the center of everything I do

Wherever I go, I'll walk the last mile with you

I've seen the whole world turn to gold

It's just like a fairground ride

Sometimes it turns out that the tyrants are the pearls

You'll always know someone loves you in this world

I want you to burn like I burn

I want you to burn like I burn

I wake up to the harsh light

And spill my heart in the cold night

I've got too much time to kill

I wrote your name upon my wall

In your light, I crumble

Forgot what I've been told

I never thought that I could feel so old

You are the center of everything I do

Wherever I go, I'll walk the last mile with you

I'll walk the last mile with you

I'll walk the last mile with you

I'll walk the last mile with you
