Liam Starica - ​we died at the altar

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2033817
Verse 1: Liam
I sat around
And let my feelings contaminate my brain
If I looked into your eyes, would it save me?
Or would the look just disintegrate me
Boiling the blood inside my veins
The fire from the candle, it still smells the same
Why can’t we be more like it

Chorus: Liam
Every time I'd walk right by
It would kill me, a thousand different times
I expected the same outcome
In an experiment with no changing variables

Verse 2: Beni
?

Chorus 2: Beni
And most times I'd stare at my screen
Not knowing what to say
Should I cut the strings
Or let him follow me into mental disarray

Bridge: Liam, **Beni**, ***Liam & Beni***
I don’t think I ever got the closure I needed to survive
**I wish I could say we were once in a lifetime**
Our lands faltered
***We died at the altar***
**Don’t say I was never in it**
But all your clothes were cologne written
**Threw a spear and pierced your heart**
I flatlined and you smiled

Verse 3: Liam & Beni
I still see in black and white
But your shadow is an outline
Forever imprinted in my brain

final Chorus: Liam, *Beni*, **Liam & Beni**
I always hoped that you’d comfort me
Like lighting the wicks of the sweet starfruit candle
And every time *(every time)*
I’d twist and turn
Until you felt the burn
**Every time I'd walk right by**
**It would kill me, a thousand different times**
**Should I cut the strings**
**Or let him follow me into mental disarray**
**I’m saying a lot of different things**
