Waking up is harder

Than it seems

Wandering through these empty rooms of

Dusty books and quiet dreams

Pictures on a mantel

Speak your name

Softly like forgotten tunes just

Outside the sound of pain

Weren't we like a pair of thieves

With tumbled locks and broken codes

You cannot take that from me

My small reprieves

Your heart of gold

Weren't we like a battlefield

Locked inside a holy war

Your love and my due diligence

The only thing worth fighting for

Change will come to those who

Have no fear

But I'm not her, you never were

The kind who kept a rule book near

What I said was never

What I meant

And now you've seen

my world in flames my

Shadow songs my deep regrets

Weren't we like a pair of thieves

With tumbled locks and broken codes

You cannot take that from me

My small reprieves

Your heart of gold

Weren't we like a battlefield

Locked inside a holy war

Your love and my due diligence

The only thing worth fighting for
