lyrics

Sunlight on the leaves
We're here, then we disappear

In a room almost dark she destroys you
Half sunken eyes put holes in your parachute
Blood rises with the mercury
There's a ghost in the hallway dragging her chain and looking at me

Break me to the sound of your radio
I was a searcher now the world is full of things
I wish I didn't know

The stars barely light the things that you're waiting to see
So you work yourself up in to a comatose reverie
Blood rises with the mercury
There's a ghost in the hallway dragging her chain and looking at me

Break me to the sound of your radio
I was a searcher now the world is full of things
I wish I didn't know

Blood rises with the mercury
There's a ghost in the hallway
Dragging her chain and looking at me
