Secret of the quiet night
Drew you down between the sheets and held your heart in mine
And that trail of tail lights seem to spell out some strange course of action
I can't quite place
Behind those opal eyes is something cold
Keep a lockbox 'round your heart, out of kindness I suppose
When you kiss me I feel like I'm grown
Wicked roots that fill me with a brightness in my bones
And I just want to live inside your brain,
Just chip away until it breaks, that frozen ounce of shame
That holds you back
I just want to live inside your brain,
Just chip away until it breaks, that frozen ounce of shame
That holds you back
That holds you back
Oh, it holds you back
And that trail of tail lights seem to spell out some strange course of action
I could never take
Behind those opal eyes is something cold
