The Devil hit his second stride

But you remember what I told ya

Someday I'll need your spine to hide behind

For fear of moments stolen

I don't wanna say goodnight

But I'll still see you in the morning

Still know your heart and still know both your eyes

I could've told you 'bout the long nights

How no one loves the birds that don't rise

So you can tell the heroes go hide

My sense of wonder is just a little tired

But if only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

And I know you'd never leave me behind

But I am lost this time

Are we destined to burn, or will we last the night?

I will hold you til I hold you right

If only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

We'll run into the open

Keep your hand inside of mine

And when everything is over

I hope to think of this as better times

The sky got red and swollen

I guess I never see the signs

There can't be songs for every soldier

There can't be solace every time you cry

I could've told you 'bout the long nights

How no one loves the birds that don't rise

So you can tell the heroes go hide

My sense of wonder's just a little tired

If only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

And I know you'd never leave me behind

But I am lost this time

Are we destined to burn, or will we last the night?

I will hold you til I hold you right

If only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

I was lost 'til I found you

Now these songs will hold and hide your name

All at once was all about you

Since that night the moon has never seemed the same

If only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine

I know you'd never leave me behind

But I am lost this time

With the love you deserve this love you never find

I've learned in love and death we don't decide

If only you could see yourself in my eyes

You'd see you shine, you shine
