lyrics

Casting a darker shadow,
Forming a shape on my pillow
Written in breath on a mirror
Words that will stay with me forever

I never meant to throw it all away
But memory will chase me forever
When can I open my eyes again?

If I wait for the blackout, will I wait for you forever?
There's a black cat, shut out
Locked inside this cold December

We have a history that's hollow
Holes in our nature will follow
Time for you to rewrite the story
We are basking in our reflected glory

When there's nothing left will you remember us?
Sorrow will fill you like an empty cup
This melody fades into the autumn light

You will wait for the blackout, as you wait for me forever.
There's a black cat, shut out
Locked inside this cold December

If I wait for the blackout, will I wait for you forever?
There are black cats, shut out
They will be in the snow forever
