As we laid motionless, beneath the summer sky
The stars reflected off your brown and teary eyes
I can't help these thoughts, I still drift back sometimes
My heart was in your vice, but you had lost your mind
Like the moonlight peaking through the tallest trees
Your life was such a waste, you were almost on your knees
In a silent prayer, you never made a sound
And now you call for help, but there's no one else around
These cuts and bruises never seemed so real
These cuts and bruises never seem to heal
Your tears kept falling before the rainstorm in the dark
And soon your misty eyes exstinguished every spark
Blow out the candles on the cake of your despair
I tried to save you, but the smoke was always there
Like the London fog that wraps around the night
You billowed in the air until you drifted out of sight
In the morning light, I knew these things would change
You tried to disappear, but I still knew your name
Every time it seems like the past could be so clear
The moon remains eclipsed and the reasons always mirror
I know you couldn't feel, but these cuts and bruises never heal
It slowly came undone as my head began to spin
I knew I couldn't save you from the places you had been
You were much too tired to feel, but these cuts and bruises never heal
So tell me now what I could steal
The past was wrong, it's been repealed
Revealed to what it couldn't be, oh no
Let it drop and watch it go, let it drop until you know
Until the feelings end up overthrown
Everytime it seems like the past could be so clear
The moon remains eclipsed and the reasons always mirror
I know you couldn't feel, but these cuts and bruises never heal
It slowly came undone as my head began to spin
I knew I couldn't save you from the places you had been
You were much too tired to feel, but these cuts and bruises never heal
I know you couldn't feel, but these cuts and bruises never heal
