Between the Breaths

As you look to the stars, oh, you could find Illuminated in scars, a face aligned I am saving the space between the breath I am making your place between the breath As the flame is to snow, first love to last I will laugh in your face like shattered glass I'm saving the space between the breaths We are saving a place between the breaths Between the breath Between the breath Between the breath Between the breath I've seen it Ooh, and I'll breathe it I've seen it Ooh, and I'll breathe it (Between the breath) I never said where I came from You never asked what I was made of You didn't need to know You already know I said it even so You didn't need to know You never said you couldn't see me Never a hint you couldn't be me I could never say, I didn't need to say Now I'm fine, although It was touch-and-go (Counting the breaths Until you) Oh la la Oh la la Oh la la Oh la la The distance between us solved by a shrug Just a shrug of dark matter Just a shrug of dark matter You thought you saw a new star, you caught a fright You think you wish you may, you wish you might Be saving the space between the breath We are saving a place between the breath I've seen it Oh, and I'll breathe it I've seen it Oh, and I'll breathe it Between the breath Between the breath Between the breath You never said you couldn't see me Never a hint you couldn't be me I could never say, I didn't need to say I said it even though You didn't need to know A sky full of messages, sealed up in bottles Smash the omens, our days are not numbered Scream in my mouth, I'll barely hear you Flame to snow First love to last Brand on brow First love to now Questions posed Uncut the throat You don't have to ask First love to last Let's meet at the same time every night Starlight on skin is a million years old You never asked my age, you never questioned my rage Let's meet at the same time every morning The blood in my gut is a thousand years old But you are the sweetest infection, you are the sweetest infection I could never know I didn't need to know You said it even though You could never know Oh no no oh Oh no no oh Oh no no oh
