We can't seem to let go

The thread's so thin it just doesn't show anymore

It seems like we're playing charades

Playing like we're afraid to live

And this is one sacrifice I don't want to make

If there's no end

There can be no beginning, there can be no beginning

If there's no end

It feels like forsaking the dawn, we awaken and still we don't see

I am still secretly grateful you're living this moment with me

We can see where it leads

It's like you can't, can't kill the monster that feeds on you

No matter what you do it seems to get you every time

And that's a predicament if I know anything

If there's no end

There can be no beginning, there can be no beginning

If there's no end

It feels like forsaking the dawn, we awaken and still we don't see

I'm still secretly grateful you're living this moment with me

Secretly grateful you're sharing this moment with me

If it's just one life we're given, one time you're living

I feel your touch light up a wild desire

Borne on my ache to take us ever higher

In our love we are birds of prey

Every cry serves to lead astray

So carry my ache and you will know the feeling

Inside I am weak but for this love I'm bearing

So breathe your life in my shades of grey

Or kill the lights and we'll fade away
