Long hallway with a broken light

White lines
that never fade
Burn deep with everyday
And I need to know

You live here
in a photograph
No sound and no regrets
And I need to know

Heart-stained
but never weak
You lay down alone
but you don't mind
Questions
that never breathe
Your face on a wall
that I can't shake

I'm walking on air,
close to you
Through a long hallway
with a broken light
And I, I need to know
If you're still alive

You hold me
like a bag of bones
Wrapped up and underground
Pull me out so I can feel
Make me believe,
that one more night's
Not a minute too long
when a moment's all I need

I'm walking on air,
close to you
Through a long hallway
with a broken light
And I, I need to know
If you're still alive

You'll marry the night
Dance with the pain
but you don't mind
See the city burn tonight,
hearts up in flames
Would you carry me away?

I'm walking on air,
close to you
Through a long hallway
with a broken light
And I, I need to know
If you're still alive
