Pipe Dream (feat. Empires of Light)

I walked around shining like the sun Unable to be touched by anyone Until you eclipsed over my heart With the shadows hanging from your head You made them mine To no longer be left alone Everything seemed to work out fine Until I forgot my home Can we run to all that brings us life? Making peace with roads that brought us strife Clung to a false sense of hope The firm grasp reminded me that None of it was real I held on tight enough until I felt you Leading me to the edge Suffocated every single breath I gave to keep you alive You won't stay no matter how hard I try Can we run to all that brings us life? Making peace with roads that brought us strife You only loved me when I was happy When I made you feel like a man Smiling cheek to cheek Giving all that I am But when I broke into pieces Smaller than a grain of sand You let me slip through your fingers Now I'm alone again There came a time when we were a home You were the frame as I became the mirror Showing everything holding you back You looked and chose to shatter what we had the pieces fell into a mosaic Revealing the love I secretly crave I hope I allow myself to experience it someday
