If i could tell you "no"
I thought it best you didn't know
Don't see it coming
The darkness visible
But when its eyes fix mine
The silver in its stone
I feel it rising, oh
The gathering storm
[Pre-Chorus]
And when I feel a darkness is a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away
And now
You don't know me like this
It's a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to hide it
It's a heartbeat away
[Chorus]
And I picture you
Soaked in light
I picture you
And in you I had no doubt
When the chaos calls me out
And it feel it's like there is nothing I can do
I picture you
[Verse 2]
And the night falls fast
I know it's heavy on the skin
Will it be ever thus?
They're barely visible
But when your eyes fix mine
Embracing you tonight
When I hold my breath
Through the waste and the while
[Pre-Chorus]
When I feel it rising
It's a heartbeat away
And I don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away
And now
You don't know me like this
It's a heartbeat away
And I
Don't know how to fight it
It's a heartbeat away
[Chorus]
And I picture you
Soaked in light
I picture you
And in you I had no doubt
When the chaos calls me out
And it feels like it's nothing i could do
I picture you
[Verse 1] If i could tell you "no" I thought it best you didn't know Don't see it coming The darkness visible But when its eyes fix mine The silver in its stone I feel it rising, oh The gathering storm [Pre-Chorus] And when I feel a darkness is a heartbeat away And I don't know how to fight it It's a heartbeat away And now You don't know me like this It's a heartbeat away And I don't know how to hide it It's a heartbeat away [Chorus] And I picture you Soaked in light I picture you And in you I had no doubt When the chaos calls me out And it feel it's like there is nothing I can do I picture you [Verse 2] And the night falls fast I know it's heavy on the skin Will it be ever thus? They're barely visible But when your eyes fix mine Embracing you tonight When I hold my breath Through the waste and the while [Pre-Chorus] When I feel it rising It's a heartbeat away And I don't know how to fight it It's a heartbeat away And now You don't know me like this It's a heartbeat away And I Don't know how to fight it It's a heartbeat away [Chorus] And I picture you Soaked in light I picture you And in you I had no doubt When the chaos calls me out And it feels like it's nothing i could do I picture you Explain Request ×
