Promises in the Scars of our Skin

I came here tonight
not to crash, not to crash
not again, please

the blood leaves your hands
ghost white and starlight
I swear it's in your veins
the reason I still breathe

my thoughts are rubberbands
they rebound through my head
pluck one from the broken air
I can guarantee that it's of you

and I brought our scarlet pain
here tonight, not to damage
what we have left
(pieces and bits)
but because the scream you gave me
only inceased my craving
for the fairy lights
(everything that made us this)

ribbons and rainbows are not enough
when it comes to you and I
so instead we'll seal our love
our sins, our nightmares and lies
with promises written
in the scars of our skin
like the endless stars of the sky
