lyrics

On grey nights, I conjure the memories that wander through my head
The picture's imperfect, but I know I deserved it in the end
What was solemn's now shaken, and I broke what I thought would never bend
Now I'm nervous and tired and sure that we will never make amends

Dream dream dream, it's the only way to talk to you
Scream scream scream, never fought the way we used to
We're both stuck in our heads in separate rooms
And like the clouds outside the future looms

You said patience is painless, but I have never felt a deeper wound
Of course I'm not blameless, but I thought I would cope better than you
It's harder to frame this underneath the light of the moon
My anger was aimless, and I should have known better, I'm a fool

Staining your memory, fraying at the ends
Burning so carelessly, pages never read
Staining your memory, fraying at the ends
Burning so carelessly, pages never read

Dream dream dream, now I never seem to talk to you
Scream scream scream, it's a thought I'm getting used to
We're still stuck in our heads in separate rooms
But better than before, the future blooms
