about

I want to wish, not to be alone,
because it feels like you are not here anymore.

lyrics

there’s a place bereft of you and I
now I know what’s been missing in the palm of mine
and you want to wish, not to be alone,
because it feels like you’re not here anymore.

I tighten my grip, but the words don’t leave my mouth
all around me is blooming into the blackened night
and I

never knew, what is it like to by fully loved
and I never knew, what is it like to be fully alive
never knew, what is it like to by fully loved
and I never knew, what is it like to be fully alive

I saw a stranger I knew very well today.
I’ve yet to meet another just because I’m not okay
and I want to wish, not to be alone,
because it feels like you are not here anymore.

I tighten my grip, but the words don’t leave my mouth
all around me is blooming into the blackened night
and now

go hide or fight the wolves in the night
go hide or fight the wolves in the night
go hide or fight the wolves in the night
go hide or fight the wolves in the night

and I never knew, what is it like to by fully loved
and I never knew, what is it like to be fully alive
and I never knew, what is it like to by fully loved
and I never knew, what is it like to be fully alive
