Wither

If you could bear to sleep here Even for just tonight I know it’s gonna change Just give me a little while Of course, I want a truce It’s just not so resolute As biting your lips And absolving what I will lose As you change a dress I hope you think the best of me My prince, my love My co-star you just Never shone bright enough Give up your light I’m sure it’s fading Give up your light I’m sure it’s fading Give up your light I’m sure it’s fading I watched a sunflower die On the windowsill for days Maybe I knew it was coming Distilled I watched it fade And I watched her sleep Right beside me and never break I’ll never ask you to change Beg you to stay But I know this is right for me Hear my voice At the end of the road You’re just not at the altar boy I know it’s gotta change I just hope that one day You won’t be a stranger With a legacy I can’t escape Give up your light I‘m sure it’s fading And I won’t stick around any longer I I’ll wither amongst the stars But I hoped you’d come around To see I don’t fight But what’s even left if the Only thing that was Shining in my life Couldn’t bare to Grow old with me But I won’t go out like that
