Lyrics
You gave me a fever
Your Fire like the sun
I became a believer
Before I learned to run
I hold onto the feeling
‘Cus shadow days are surely bound to come
I just want you near me
When I’m with you I become undone
I can’t see
And I can’t breathe
I can’t remember anything
When you’re not with me I’m a shell of myself
Can’t you tell I’ve been dreaming
I lost you in the dark
Been meaning to give you
These pieces of my heart
Too much to hold on to
They belong in hands that only I can trust
Give me yours too
I can carry them until we turn to dust
I can’t see
And I can’t breathe
I can’t remember anything
When you’re not with me I’m a shell of myself
And since you’re gone
I wasn’t wrong
I hear the thunder rolling in
When you’re not with me I’m a shell of myself
A shell of myself
Come home to me, I’ll be waiting
I am free, you’re my everything
Home with me, I’ll be staying
I am seen, you’re my everything
Here with me, I’ll be holding
Oxygen for you my everything
I am lost in this city
Until you’re here you’re my everything
I can’t see
And I can’t breathe
I can’t remember anything
When you’re not with me I’m a shell of myself
And since you’re gone
I wasn’t wrong
I could hear the thunder rolling in
When you’re not with me I’m a shell of myself
A shell of myself
A shell of myself
A shell of myself
