The air was heavy, I felt it weigh me down
I lay and waited for you to come round
When you opened your eyes I looked over at you
And understood why I couldn't move.
It wasn't the air, nor gravity,
but the thought of being with you that clung to me
The feeling shifted as the light crept in
Looked around and found I was alone again
Pulled the curtains back and light poured in
Painted rainbows over everything
It's funny how it gets to me
It's nothing but honesty
But like dreams at dawn, the sun sets at dusk
And the spectrums, they all turn to rust.
I'll see you tonight when the colours all fade
There'll be no fight, but you'll be gone the next day.
The feeling shifts when the light creeps in
Look inside and find that I'm alone again.
