it's roaring at my back, the pain of everything i lack / but i don't think it's true, i'll trust that you can love me too
(a hunger for retribution)
(a hunger for retribu—)
when spring comes, the world is blooming again (yet my tears never seem to end) / when spring comes, we take the air for a spin (and it kills me to breathe it in)
i think i love you just a little!
maybe more than just a little...
now i've been dreaming of a bygone day, and filing all the dreams so far away / in this oh so heavy head, shoulders that slump in dread / and i've been wanting for a flash of light, a miracle to make it all alright / so what's a confidant to do?
do you hear me? all caught up in your past; though you love so still, i know we'd move so fast
i'll fall asleep and dream here with you, three thousand miles at ten and one / a wire-crossed and tangled romance, some voicemail's all i'm askin' for...! (are you gonna pick up? are you there? do you care?)
and when we fly by night, it sets my soul alight; so take what's left unused, made into something new
