lyrics

Two worlds
And one I’m living in
Like a foreign spy
Two girls
One I knew and one who now
Reminds the tears of my eyes

Throw me a bone
I feel like a little dog
Who’s been taken for a walk
You used to laugh
Now you haven’t laughed in months
You hardly even talk

Time is what you’re taking
You say that you’re just waiting for a sign
But I got this funny feeling
A feeling that you’re leaving me behind

All my red balloons have fallen to the floor
And all my funny quirks
They ain’t so funny anymore
Who chased your heart into this winding dark?

I try to find the right words
But I fail with every breath
I can see this boredom is bordering on death
Could it be
That we no longer breathe
The lovers’ air?

Love’s not what you’re making
A withering rose on the vine
And I got this sinking feeling
You’re leaving me behind
