"candlelight" lyrics

girl on a hill & Sarah Barrios Lyrics

"candlelight"

In my room
All of the lights turned on in my mind
They keep me up
All of our memories are now painted blue
Hate watercolor truths

Empty words
Going through motions
Like its a job
I wonder who's
Gettin' employee of the month
Ooh...

You and I are hangin' by a thread
And it makes sense
Is this where the story ends

Power went out
All the lights have turned to matches
It's colder now
Tryin' to make a fire with ashes
We're holding hands
And drinkin' gin
To stay warm

It's not enough
But we'll try to chase the feeling
Versions of us
In our shadows on the ceiling
As the embers fade
We have to face
What's inside
We're losing candlelight

Talk too much when it's quiet
And every dinner's in silence
Startin' fights out of habit
Anxious hands with the napkin
Ooh...

Turning to the window when we sleep
We hardly speak, oh
It makes me wanna scream

Power went out
All the lights have turned to matches
It's colder now
Tryin' to make a fire with ashes
We're holding hands
And drinkin' gin
To stay warm

It's not enough
But we'll try to chase the feeling
Versions of us
In our shadows on the ceiling
As the embers fade
Don't wanna face
What's inside
We're losing candlelight
