quiet crime
from narcissistic collapse · 3:58
How many times have you been in a bed together While all I can do is daydream ours The plates in front of me are cracking And my reflection is shaded in the dark Like a photograph left in the rain, indiscernible
I trace your name in the glass But it disappears before I can grasp Every shadow in the room feels heavier And I feel smaller, barely there
Daydream ours, but it's only mine Every heartbeat, a quiet crime I watch the world through fractured glass Hoping someday these cracks will pass
What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime
The laughter blooms a daisy in the foiled carpet I taste the sweetness of a love I can't remember Your warmth is a ghost that brushes past my skin And I'm left chasing shadows that might have been
I reach for you in midnight light (light) But you're already gone out of sight The plates keep breaking, the mirror bends And I keep pretending it never ends
Daydream ours, but it's only mine Every heartbeat, a quiet crime I watch the world through fractured glass Hoping someday these cracks will pass
What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime
I count the steps that take me to an endless pace I whisper your name, and the wind gushes to my ears I'm stuck between what's real and wished Every daydream is a hit or miss (oh fuck, what a quiet crime)
Daydream ours, but it's only mine Every heartbeat, a quiet crime I watch the world through fractured glass Hoping someday these cracks will pass
What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime
Daydream ours, but it's only mine Every heartbeat, a quiet crime I watch the world through fractured glass Hoping someday these cracks will pass
What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet crime What a quiet hmm
Maybe, maybe one day, when I open my eyes, the story will be ours
