Nighthouse

We were sunken ships in the cushions of your couch Reluctant to abandon that boarded lighthouse The nights grew darker once our light bulb burned out And now we're residing in a rundown nighthouse And I stand by our bedroom door, not welcome anymore You let me in then sleep on the floor So, I curl up and pray in the bed of sin we made Begging for a way, to break out of this haunted nighthouse There's an ocean raging outside of closed blinds over my eyes And they won't open when your lips are pressed against mine Oh, I can't live in this somber room without sunlight If you close the curtains I'll have my bags packed by night And I stand by our bedroom door, not welcome anymore You let me in then choose to ignore How I curl up and pray in this bed so afraid We'll never find a way to breakdown the walls of this house Let me out of the dark, of the dark He washes up to me like high tide onto shore And ev'ry time he leaves I dry up thirsting for more So, crash down over me, you can soak into my sandy pores We'll never be at peace if you're at sea and I'm onshore Tear down the bars and fix our broken light A beacon of hope could save this haunted site And guide us through the night, through the night But I won't stay here with your weary ghost On the nightstand, I left a note And in the morning that ferry horn will blow But as it wakes you, I'll be on the next boat
