Vague Senses/vain Melodies Lyrics - Singles - The Graham Situation

She smiled at me from beneath, 

Yellow strobing streetlights 

And gone again like a ghost 

I tend to fall for everything 

And then this silence I can't comprehend 

You took the fall for me, 

And so I fell for you 

Into the crust and the tilt 

Shallow figurine of guilt 

Darken up now, honey bunny 

It is time to pretend 

(You've got to reconsider every word to be the winner) 

She looked as if the sun just cracked 

In the back of the buzz, 

There is no turning back 

So I forget and I learn and I raise the bar 

And go a hundred million miles, 

Just to get to where you are 

I'd like to learn your name, 

I'd like to start a flame 

I'd play the perfect game 

I would go all the way 

But your eyes won't fix on me 

Your eyes won't fix on me 

Hard to impress, hard to suppress 

Like a venom in my blood 

I know I'll never forget 

Head alone in the night when the snow still fell 

Although it may not hurt now, 

Buckle up for the bang 

Love your eyes are dead cold 

Can you give me a sign? 

I can't do this alone 

I can't take on this fight by myself 

Pavement sky, starry night, city lights 

Like a bullet to the back 

Your knife cuts deeper than mine 

The smack and the tilt 

She's my figurine of guilt 

The pepper of this afternoon 

Coax me, I want to feel your love just like I did before you hoaxed me 

Out of everything and everyone 

It chokes me like a pillow pressed against my face 

And soaks me in my own denial
