The Next World

OPEN MY EYES ALL I SEE
ARE YOUR DARK BROWN EYES
LOOKING AT ME
CLOSE MY EYES NOTHING THERE
ALL I SEE IS YOUR LONG STRAIGHT HAIR
I STAY QUIET, SO TO SPEAK
BUILD THESE WALLS NICE AND STEEP
BUT YOU BREAK THEM DOWN LIKE AN EARTHQUAKE
WHEN YOU COME CLOSE MY WHOLE WORLD SHAKES
I CAN’T SEE CLEAR ANYMORE
ALL THESE THINGS WE’VE TRIED BEFORE
ONCE IN A LIFE TIME
NIGHT’S SO DARK, HEADLIGHTS ARE BRIGHT
EVERYTHING MUST COME TO LIGHT
THROW ME A LIFELINE
WILL I SEE YOU IN THE NEXT WORLD?
I’LL SEE YOU IN THE NEXT WORLD
IT’S TIME LIKE THIS I FORGET TO BREATHE
MY BODY WRITES BUT MY MIND MISREADS
YOU FLOOD ME LIKE A TIDAL WAVE
I GASP FOR AIR LIKE A SOUL TO SAVE
I CAN’T SEE CLEAR ANYMORE
ALL THESE THINGS WE’VE TRIED BEFORE
ONCE IN A LIFE TIME
NIGHT’S SO DARK, HEADLIGHTS ARE BRIGHT
EVERYTHING WILL COME TO LIGHT
THROW ME A LIFELINE
WILL I SEE YOU IN THE NEXT WORLD?
I’LL SEE YOU IN THE NEXT WORLD
