The Vanishing Game

Tonight the footsteps and the shadows stay

Inside a windowless hideaway

Just long enough for memories to flash and fade

But when the falling tears make the quiet flame burn out

And the silhouettes that we walk, that we trace in design

And the characters we've played before reappear in a different life

Neither wanna be reborn if it resembles the other side

And we whisper in the dark for the last time

We cover our faces, we black out our names

They say that it's dangerous to play the vanishing game

And they see what they want to believe

Am I safe in this haven when we play the vanishing game?

The vanishing game

And when the storm comes down again

Shifting all shapes like the sleight of hand

We'll be pieces of glass sticking out of the sand

To validate the fears that they don't understand, oh, oh

And the silhouettes that we walk, that we trace in design

And the characters we've played before reappear in a different life

Neither wanna be reborn if it resembles the other side

And we whisper in the dark for the last time

We cover our faces, we black out our names

They say that it's dangerous to play the vanishing game

And they see what they want to believe

Am I safe in this haven when we play the vanishing game?

The vanishing game
