Eternal Dance of Sorrow

Shadows on your collarbone

Glitter on my shaking hands

We keep tracing broken hearts

In the dust of this wasteland

You smile like you never cried

Eyes still red from yesterday

Every step a quiet prayer

Not to fall

But we sway

We spin in an eternal dance of sorrow

Holding on to every borrowed tomorrow

Every tear becomes a light on the floor

We keep hurting just to feel a little more

In this eternal dance of sorrow

Round and round like we were made to let go

If this ache is all we get in the end

Let it burn

Let it break us again

You say “this is all we have” (all we have)

Faded wristbands

Tangled hair

Sing along to broken words

Like the truth was never there

I reach out

You pull me in

All our ruins glowing gold

Two disasters keeping time

To a story never told

We spin in an eternal dance of sorrow

Holding on to every borrowed tomorrow

Every tear becomes a light on the floor

We keep hurting just to feel a little more

In this eternal dance of sorrow

Round and round like we were made to let go

If this ache is all we get in the end

Let it burn

Let it break us again

If the morning finds us

Smudged mascara

Empty eyes

Will you still remember

How our broken hearts aligned

We spin in an eternal dance of sorrow

Holding on to every borrowed tomorrow

Every tear becomes a light on the floor

We keep hurting just to feel a little more

In this eternal dance of sorrow

Round and round like we were made to let go

If this ache is all we get in the end

Let it burn

Let it break us again
