lyrics

Red skies in the morning, I'm taking off
Every secret has its price but no one wants to pay the cost
A crown of thorns in a Jesus year
The adaptation of a disaster film that we live for real

There's magic in your eyes
More than anyone could own
It should come as no surprise
You know something that I don't

Princess bed for a princess, to be served like a queen
Desire paths in abandoned meadows that lead you to your dreams
Don't ask for something I can't give, don't tell me how to tell the truth
We'll never know the blur of the moon as well as lovers do

There's magic in your eyes
More than anyone could own
It should come as no surprise
You know something that I don't

I don't want to find someone when I know that I'm better off alone
I don't want to fall in love but I'll drown if I fill my heart with stone

The love cry of the dinner party is "everyone leaves"
And it's the only thing that ever brought me to my knees
I said that I felt like a ghost & you said you understood
That being loved by someone doesn't make them good
