"checkered arms" lyrics

"checkered arms"

Checkered arms
We lay afraid
"Keep me safe"
Is what you'd say
And so the sun
Keeps on growing
Keeps on going
As you fade into a memory

I saw the twinkle in your eyes fade (Stay on the phone)
We held hands in the summer twilight (Scattered on your arms)
We hold a blanket of blades (Stay on the phone)
There's a sadness unwilting (Scattered on your arms)
I saw your message at three AM (Stay on the phone)
In the dead of night (Scattered on your arms)
Please keep on fighting (Stay on the phone)
I love you, oh my God
