Mirror teeth.2

I keep driving through the city lights

Trying to leave the past behind

Every road looks the same tonight

Maybe I'm just losing my mind

Oh, I know exactly where you've been

I've been watching from beneath your skin

Every doubt, every scar, every sin

You don't have to pretend with me

I don't wanna be that person anymore

Then why are you standing at my door?

In the middle of the night

When the world fades out of sight

I hear my name from the other side

And I know it's mine

You make me feel like I'm breaking apart

I'm just the truth you hide in the dark

I spent years trying to bury your voice

Funny thing is, you gave me the choice

We're dancing in the headlights

Running through red lights

Two halves of the same soul

Trying to take control

Maybe I can change

Maybe you won't

Maybe I'm enough

Maybe you don't

But when the morning comes

And the shadows run

You'll still find me

In the person you've become

I'm the anger

I'm the hope

I'm the reason

I still cope

We're the fire and the smoke

The wound and the cure

The thing we're running from

And the thing we're looking for

You show up in the silence after every bad day

Saying all the worst things in the sweetest way

You wear my face like a curse I can't break

Turn my pulse to thunder every breath I take

I’m the voice in your chest when you’re two drinks in

The ache in your jaw when you bite back again

I know every version of the boy you’ve been

And I’ll be waiting when the walls cave in

So tell me if I run

Will you still be in my blood?

If I drown out your name

Will it ever be enough?

I don’t wanna disappear inside your hands

Then stop pretending you don’t understand

In the middle of the night

With my body split in two

You’re the shadow in my lungs

And the smoke I’m breathing through

I can feel you in my bloodstream

I can taste you on your teeth

We’re dancing with a dead dream

With nowhere left to leave

And when the morning comes

And the light cuts through

You’ll still find me

Looking back at you
