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
