Skylark - Hawthorne Heights

You’re like a shimmer on a wave

The sun drifts a golden shift

Then you go away

You’re like the desert in my veins

The wind will make us bend

But our hearts will never break

Black coffee on early mornings

Late night struggles

The skylark sings me to sleep

No more dreaming just a burning feeling

That were in trouble

I swear I’m still yours to keep

You’re like a ship without an ocean

Time stands still and makes you feel

Like you’re stuck in slow motion

You know it burns 'cause it’s supposed to

The sun begins to change our skin

One day soon we will glow again

Black coffee on early mornings

Late night struggles

The skylark sings me to sleep

No more dreaming just a burning feeling

That were in trouble

I swear I’m still yours to keep

I gave you everything I had

I gave you everything

We spend our lives in deep suspense

Trying to find happiness

Another day goes by

I’ll find paradise in my own head

Killing time behind my eyes

The skylark sings sad lullabies

Another day goes by

I’ll find paradise in my own head

Black coffee on early mornings

Late night struggles

The skylark sings me to sleep

No more dreaming just a burning feeling

That were in trouble

I swear I’m still yours to keep
