Lyrics by Andrew Bingham

lyrics

Take two steps back into the grave
Of which tongues erupt
We’re two damaged lovers
Wrestle with the tension
Between fiction and the truth
They fought for their love
Breaking every rule
See it’s not always fair
In love and war

But the sun may never shine as bright as your eyes
As bright as your eyes
And I promise not to try to get inside your mind
To make you see me clearly tonight

We’ve backtracked again
Further than before
Knives drawn out
There’s blood on the floor
Proving love ain’t stronger than
This blood on the floor
I can’t tell whose it is anymore

You never wanted me to be the one you run to
And I promise one more thing
I’ll always love you
And your broken promises

Your broken promises

The sun will never shine
