lyrics
(e.)
I see your silhouette dancing behind my window screen
while lost in its routine
I don’t sense the backing light starting to retreat
as it slowly shrinks
I follow along
burning notes to prolong the song
so darling if you must go
then use me as your stepping stone
for Im content with sinking further below
if it means that you wont
if it means that you’ll be safe
I’ll hold my own underneath this mud
with the memory of your face
i’ll be your scapegoat i’ll take the blame
but if I cant be who I need to be for you
Im sorry
its just that I can hardly be who I need to be for me
and I know that these sort of things take time
you used to see hope when you looked in my eyes
but you didn't see any left that night
you saw everything you thought was wrong in everything I thought was right
I cant survive the dark without your light
(Saint Tomorrow)
Because these nights get so cold,
Just like the nights I used to walk you home,
but that's okay, because so are you,
So I guess I'm too,
I too scared to be alone without a purpose , is it worth it?
I'm so scared of feeling worthless in all I do,
It leads back to you, these words worn through,
"I need to prove myself to anyone"
I don't need anyone,
So I'll just fall asleep
I see your silhouette dancing behind my window screen
while lost in its routine
I don’t sense the backing light starting to retreat
as it slowly shrinks
I follow along
burning notes to prolong the song
so darling if you must go
then use me as your stepping stone
for Im content with sinking further below
if it means that you wont
if it means that you’ll be safe
I’ll hold my own underneath this mud
with the memory of your face
i’ll be your scapegoat i’ll take the blame
but if I cant be who I need to be for you
Im sorry
its just that I can hardly be who I need to be for me
and I know that these sort of things take time
you used to see hope when you looked in my eyes
but you didn't see any left that night
you saw everything you thought was wrong in everything I thought was right
I cant survive the dark without your light
(Saint Tomorrow)
Because these nights get so cold,
Just like the nights I used to walk you home,
but that's okay, because so are you,
So I guess I'm too,
I too scared to be alone without a purpose , is it worth it?

It leads back to you, these words worn through,
"I need to prove myself to anyone"
I don't need anyone,
So I'll just fall asleep
