Mayflies

Benjamin Francis Leftwich

I'm wide awake
Colours start to run
Giving in, like I'm staring at the sun
I'm burning up, cause you say that you love
Me, but I know there's a life I'm giving up

In another life, like mayflie
We'll take over the sky
In another world, away from here

I don't wanna talk about it
Afraid of what I'm gonna do
I don't wanna let your light in
I've got enough to lose

I don't wanna say it's something
Afraid I'm gonna make it true
We'll be lying in the pieces
I've got enough to lose
I've got enough to lose

Still awake
Nothing seems to shine
For better days
What will we leave behind?
You're making me choose, but I can't lie
Maybe we're a love for another time

In another life, like mayflies
We'll take over the sky
In another world, away from here

I don't wanna talk about it
Afraid of what I'm gonna do
I don't wanna let your light in
I've got enough to lose

I don't wanna say it's something
Afraid I'm gonna make it true
We'll be lying in the pieces
I've got enough to lose
I've got enough to lose
I've got enough to lose

I don't wanna talk about it
Afraid of what I'm gonna do
I don't wanna let your light in
I've got enough to lose

I don't wanna say it's something
Afraid I'm gonna make it true
We'll be lying in the pieces
I've got enough to lose

I've got enough to lose
I've got enough to lose
I've got enough to lose
I've got enough to lose
I've got enough to lose
