Lyrics

[Verse 1] Trace around her lips With his fingers, he tries to draw on a smile "Give it time These scars are the stars that will show you the light." [Pre-Chorus 1] And now she's all he sees; He stays awake to watch her breathe The unheard melodies; The grace notes of her restless sleep [Chorus] Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here Oh It's so clear… [Verse 2] His tattered undershirt— A souvenir that she likes to breathe in She sighs— Days spent doing nothing unconscious of time [Pre-Chorus 2] And now he's all she sees; She stays awake to watch him breathe The unknown poetry; Sweet sonnets of how it should be [Chorus 2] Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here Oh [Bridge] Well everybody might just have these same ideas-- The same plan-- I suppose... I suppose... Well everybody might just have these same ideas-- The same plan-- I suppose... I suppose... [Verse 3] We've found a perfect niche: Where plastic meets perfect, kill substance with style... But inside We get burned by the fuel that we cannot deny [Chorus] Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here Hold me now Don't let it fade away from here
