Cheat

And like a ghost in the silence, I disappear
But my heart will stay with you
I know I shouldn’t look, but I can’t look away.
I watch you like I’m gonna rip you limb from limb.

But my heart will stay with you.
Salt my wounds, but I can’t heal how I feel about you
I watch you like I’m gonna rip you limb from limb
Can we simply starve this sin?

Salt my wounds, but I can’t heal how I feel about you
Eye like a car crash, body like a whip lash
Can we simply starve this sin?
The tides will bring me back to you.

Eyes like a carcrash, body like a whiplash.
Don’t fight the storm, I’ll tumble overboard.
The tides will bring me back to you.
And like a ghost in the silence, I disappear
