They told me: Drink 'til she's pretty enough
Drink until she's the wine on your tongue
Kiss to forget, sleep when you're dead
Love when you're young and it matters
They told me: Breathe her like second-hand smoke
Let her stain your hands and seep in your clothes
Dance to remind yourself that you're dying
And, honey, that I'm no different
'Cause we're always waiting to kiss till the Sun's down
Never looking into each other's eyes
If you are the hollow, then I'll be an echoing sound
If you're darkness, I'm drawn to the night
Are we nothing but swings at a park?
Just kids making out in the dark
Hiding from war we claim to fight for one another?
You're like fireflies trapped in a jar
You're a prison without any bars
You make me alone, you're soft like a stone hitting the water
'Cause we're always waiting to kiss till the Sun's down
Never looking into each other's eyes
If you are the hollow, then I'll be an echoing sound
If you're darkness, I'm drawn to the night
Are you still feeling empty tonight?
Are you kissing me so I'll quit asking you why you look sad?
If you'd want to come back here in the morning?
'Cause, darlin', I'd kiss you in the broad daylight
Take a long hard look in your eyes
You are the hollow to echo a head full of songs
You're the darkness where I found the light
