lyrics

Daybreak, and the stupid things I said
Fall out of focus as the dead
Space of my darkened bedroom drifts
Slowly away
Well, I never loved you quite like I pretended
But I was in love with what you represented
And blindly subscribed to that life we invented
One more half-hearted attempt at transcendence

Give up the ghost
We've got a minute at the most
So pull me close
And put your finger to my pulse

Nightfall, and your stupid, feel-good songs
Fade with the summer till they're gone
Wandering the boardwalk, swallowed up
Lost in the haze
Those things that we held to that made life worth living
Were beautiful, yes, but they weren't worth believing
I'm scouring myself for a soul that's worth searching
Sifting through memories stripped of all meaning

'Cause now I need
Just one more minute to believe
So please, just come close
And put your finger to my pulse

Sometimes, I swear, I feel so weak
Sometimes I still recall the sweet
Sound of your stubborn, senseless
Heart beat
Heart beat
