Suffocate my hopes with time,
Tear up every priceless dream,
Allow reality to interrupt,
Never leaving things as they seem,
Don't you realise that I'm waiting?
I'm waiting here for you,
Nothing clears the condensation,
Guide me gently through,

Spare my tired eyes from searching,
The shimmer might just fade,
Illuminate these sudden shadows,
Leave them where they should've stayed,
Love shouldn't be so expensive, baby we've already paid.
