how much can they endure?
how much can we endure?
how big is the universe?
we are on a mission
yet to know how much it costs
but go back and we'd do it all over again
the only truth
wanting to believe in you and me
can I hide from the world under sheets
you and me
and the rest of the world stands still?
ceases to exist
we would be ok
everything so innocent in the start
who knew we would wind up here?
still holding on to each other
weve been through so much
broken people
corroded
together?
dont wanna think about all
we have been through
but your kiss seals the deal
of death and memory
how can we put it back together
when we have fallen all apart?
weve seen each other dead
how do you move on together with that
dragging between us
hanging around our necks
i just wanna turn from you and leave
but you know we are chained
together no matter what
youre my best friend
and ive hurt you
its beyond our control
in our pain we stand
the shadows
the lines moving over our faces
trying to forget
but not wanting to forget each other
im holding on to you
im walking after you
if you turn and leave me
memories
weve been through so much
together
how can we still believe in each other?
but its the only thing we believe in
you know when you search my face
you always find me there following you
through everything
no matter what
youll always be fighting for me
ill always be fighting for you
we are exhausted
so we are running
holding hands
but no time to stop
and stand still
maybe its because we know
that
then
in out stillness we'd drown
together
you cant say how much you love me
as i put my finger to your lips
we are quiet and surviving
we are loud and dying
its too much to say
the pain flickering in our eyes
like making love
its a line we crossed
that we cant step back from
i cant do this without you
by my side
i need you on this one
not knowing how innocent it started out
not seeing our reality of dicing with death
falling deeper into dark
falling deeper into you
until we are inseperable
youd never give up on me
the first time i decided i wouldnt give up on you
there on after there was no choice
in the matter
id follow you over a cliff
id follow you into death
so the the two of us go marching along
safe only in the knowledge that
you would do the same
so far from safe now
danger around every corner, every bend
a big question mark dangling in front of us
where to from here?
i dont know what this is
what we are
I dont know if there is a tomorrow
no tomorrow with you
(only todays)
but we will fall asleep
trusting that tomorrow will come
that well be alive to enjoy it
we cant see what we are fighting
the silent threat makes so much sound
these threats are invisable to the world
i wonder why we bother
why we cant just give up
on this world which is so unfit to accomodate
our love.
but we made our decision in the beginnning
and now we cant turn back
we cant give up
we wont give up
even if
it takes us to the end of the earth
and back
the end of time
and back
there is no end to how far we can run together
youve forgotten to stop and look into my eyes
i want to take us back under the sheets
hidden from the world in pure white shadows
your face is mine and the only shadows are those we can see
but we are too far from home
weve run to far from home
so there is no home to call our own
no place we can hide
from the world
or each other
the pain is stretched out for you to see
so i kinda get why
you dont stop to look into my eyes
my eyes are red and fill of blood
crying blood rain
juilet tears
you refuse to see me falter
you refuse to see me fall
my feet slip underneath me
as we run
can i keep doing this?
juilet banging on closed doors
willing to be let in from the blood rain
but no one will let me in
crying blood myself
maybe i am part of this
thats why no one will let me in
white dressed soaked red
its meant to stand for new beginnings
and my souls marriage
to you
but i know underneath its white
and im standing as death and a ghost
a spirit locked out from any connection
weve sucked each other dry
dead crinkly leaves fragmenting to dust
flying away on the wind
our fights remain as dust
our race floats away in the wind
should we even move?
should we stand still
and wait
for the wind of time
to take us?
preserved
our hearts wrapped in bed sheets
dripping red
because maybe the world would just stop
its ceaseless knocking on the door
and out hearts could go on beating for each other
rather than to pump our fruitless race
spilt aoetories
do we remain locked in there?
or out here in the world
breathing
and panting
and broken
unable to move?
believing in only each other
grab and run
we are holding on
even if we cant stop
to look each other in the eye
we are taking with us
the only thing that we want to keep
the only thing for which we believe
the only thing that stumbles
and falters
the only thing we want
when the darkness ctaches up
we face our deaths together
we face our lives on the run
we face the truth that breaks us
but will never break us apart
chain linked
steal chains bind us
together by the heart
it digs in
making marks
all over my heart
yoour speed, my speed
we are together
but someone is always being dragged along
both of us dripping blood
and im not alone out here in the rain
everyone else is inside
but your out here with me
alone and drowning
we keep running
even though
we know the wind of time
will take us
