Shifting through cities for stories to tell Looking for somewhere you can settle yourself Inside the mess of people wishing you well Wishing you well, I'm wishing you well All night, covered in light Outside a city where the streets have all died This time I'm alive Below the branches that keep scraping the sky In your sleep, by your side Darling, I'm a piece of your mind Endless weeks have gone by Darling, I'm by your side I might find a way to hold your weight A quiet place to make a home While violet rays pry away The world we make in daylight I hate to be the man to take you from your dad's hands But why lie when I'm knowing that you can't stand Living in a house that's filled with all these fucking dead ends? Dead ends, dead, dead ends In your sleep, by your side Darling, I'm a piece of your mind Endless weeks have gone by Darling, I'm by your side I might find a way to hold your weight A quiet place to make a home While violet rays pry away The world we make in daylight I might find a way to hold your weight A quiet place to make a home While violet rays pry away The world we make in daylight (Daylight, daylight) (Daylight, daylight) I might find a way to hold your weight A quiet place to make a home While violet rays pry away The world we make in daylight I might find a way to hold your weight A quiet place to make a home While violet rays pry away The world we make in daylight
