lyrics

Verse One:
I’m staying away from false love
From losing my soul in the shove
I’d rather rest forever in your wings
It’s colder than a witch's tit
And not the ones we love, you’d better know it
I’d rather stay forever in your wings

Chorus:
Nightfall is a death, windfall is a breath
Am I dreamin’ you said “everything lives on?”
I can hide under a sheet and pretend i know where to find sleep
Don’t go, you said you wouldn't

Verse Two:
When i miss you, it brings you back, it's like you're there
My mind will blanket you
on your shift
I can't find my joy in hope, it is not real
Your apples and pears come tumbling down

Chorus:
Nightfall is a death, windfall is a breath
Am I dreamin’ you said “everything lives on?”
I’ll just hide under a sheet and pretend i know where to find sleep
Don’t go, you said you wouldn't

Chorus to fade
