lyrics

- Leadened -

Spin of the moonlight
and a loss of control
under the terrible spotlight you can feel yourself growing old

and we're still, laughing
with the boys from the block

She smooths her dress with her right hand
she lowered her eyes
something about just breathing her in

makes you tired
makes you tired
makes you tired

of wearing your grin when you should be
punching at stones
wish the tangled mess would just
leave you alone
with each step you get
further from home
you get soft
and you crack

So lead me in
I'm a confident kid
dark eyes under heavy lids
I'm just waiting, waiting to split

Sitting up to soak it in
she's thin and cold and clean as porcelain
weighed down by those heavy sins
well they're not that real

and a flicker of feeling's dancing on the
tip of your tongue
yeah I know how it goes I
I heard that one
I seen that one

they all end on a winter night
when the snow settles the city
and the streetlights play for their own delight
and you find yourself out on an empty street
and you know where you are but you got
nowhere to go
no one to meet
nowhere to be
you seen it all it's all so sickly sweet
that you can't even breathe

lead me in
I'm a confident kid
dark eyes under heavy lids
I'm just waiting, waiting to split

lead me in
I'm a confident kid
dark eyes under these heavy lids
I'm just waiting, waiting to give in.
