(You say to let it breathe)
(I live in the ebony too much)
(I'm crumblin' underneath)
(But I'll keep quiet as you fall asleep, my love)
You say to let it breathe
I live in the ebony too much
I'm crumblin' underneath
But I'll keep quiet as you fall asleep, my love
I'm clever with my disguises
Make sure to never wear one twice
I'm sure you wouldn't recognise
If I skipped town on an alibi
Deal light with me
I dream of kerosene
It gets so hard to see
Livin' in the ebony
I've been wonderin'
Are we what we seem
Or are we ashes
Still rememberin' the kerosene
So I stay hooked on the caffeine
I can't cry when I'm laughing
I can't think when you're talkin'
And maybe that is a good thing
I count sheep to fall asleep
'Cause I meet wolves on the daily
I'm lookin' for some kind of peace
'Cause I know I'll never be whole here
Deal light with me
I dream of kerosene
It gets so hard to see
Livin' in the ebony
I've been wonderin'
Are we what we seem
Or are we ashes
Still rememberin'
If you open the curtains
Maybe then I'll be certain
Standin' there in the light
It was just a matter of time
Before that flicker became a spark
That led me right back
Back to the start
And I could believe I was never so far
Deal light with me
I dream of kerosene
It gets so hard to see
Livin' in the ebony
I've been wonderin'
Are we what we seem
Or are we ashes
Still rememberin'
Or are we ashes
Still rememberin' the kerosene
