she's so strong
she's been half a world away for so long
and i'm counting down the days 'til she's home
and i'm dreaming she might stay like a stone
like a perfect angel on my shoulder
sighing as i grow older
she's so right
everything makes perfect sense in her light
and i'm perfectly content by her side
there's a perfect picket fence in her eyes
but this perfect angel at my table
finds me in a fable
she's so young
she still falls in love for free and for fun
once she fell in love with me for a while
for a while the memory made me smile
while the perfect angel on my shoulder
cried as i grew older
she's so perfect

breathe me out again
show me how i bend
come set your fire to all the coldest parts of me
go running wild through all my darkest dreams
love and hold me
break and mould me

the highlights were you
the divine light in you
and the fine lines on you
were the highlights
the highlights were you
sunset
salt sweat
deep red highlights
clear seas
pine trees
all these highlights
the highlights were you
the divine light in you
and the fine lines on you
were the highlights
the highlights were you
gold streets
hard beats
such sweet highlights
stardust
raw lust
they’re just highlights

Aftertaste // Acoustic

funny how the tables turn
round and round i never learn
light me up and watch me burn
aftertaste and afterglow
like a thousand dominos
no one knocks ‘cause no one knows
what a gentle way to break a heart
funny how the morning cries
solitude in poor disguise
rest your head and dry your eyes
aftertaste and aftershocks
like a thousand epilogues
no one knows ‘cause no one knocks
what a gentle way to break a heart
