Skylark Songtext
von Hawthorne Heights

You′re like a shimmer on a wave
The sun drags a golden shift
Then you go away
You're like the desert in my veins
The wind will make us bend
But our hearts will never break

Like coffee
On early mornings
Late night struggles
The skylark sings me to sleep
No more dreaming
Just a burning feeling
That we′re in trouble
I swear I'm still yours to keep


You're like a ship without an ocean
Time stands still and makes you feel
Like you′re stuck in slow-motion
You know it burns ′cause it's supposed to
The sun begins to change our skin
But one day soon, we will glow again

Like coffee
On early mornings
Late night struggles
The skylark sings me to sleep
No more dreaming
Just a burning feeling
That we′re in trouble
I swear I'm still yours to keep

I gave you everything I had
I gave you everything

We spend our lives in deep suspense
Trying to find happiness
Another day goes by
I′ll find paradise in my own head
Killing time behind my eyes
The skylark sings sad lullabies
Another day goes by
I'll find paradise in my own head


Like coffee
On early mornings
Late night struggles
The skylark sings me to sleep
No more dreaming
Just a burning feeling
That we′re in trouble
I swear I'm still yours to keep
