Skin

When I heard that sound,
When the walls came down
I was thinking about you, about you.
When my skin grows old,
When my breath runs cold
I'll be thinking about you, about you.

Seconds from my heart,
A bullet from the dark.
Helpless I surrender,
Shackled by your love.
Holding me like this
With poison on your lips.
Only when it’s over,
The silence, it’s so hard.

Cos it was almost love, it was almost love.
It was almost love, it was almost love.

When I heard that sound,
When the walls came down
I was thinking about you, about you
When my skin grows old,
When my breath runs cold
I'll be thinking about you, about you.

When I run out of air to breathe, it’s your ghost I see.
I'll be thinking about you, about you.
It was almost love, it was almost.

We bleed ourselves in vain.
How tragic is this game?
Turn around, I’m holding on
To someone, but the love is gone.
Carrying the load
With wings that feel like stone.
Knowing that we nearly fell
So far now it's hard to tell.

Yeah, we came so close, it was almost love.
It was almost love, it was almost love.

When I heard that sound,
When the walls came down
I was thinking about you, about you.
When my skin grows old,
When my breath runs cold
I'll be thinking about you, about you.

When I run out of air to breathe, it’s your ghost I see. 
I'll be thinking about you, about you. 

(Voice 1) While I reached out for your hand,
(Voices 2&3) Oh, reach out for you

(Voice 1) When the walls were caving in
(Voices 2&3) Oh, the walls caving.

(Voice 1) But I’ll see you on the other side.
(Voices 2&3) Oh, I’ll see you.

(Voice 1) We can try all over again.
(Voices 2&3) We’ll try again.

When I heard that sound, when the walls came down
I was thinking about you, about you
When my skin grows old,
When my breath runs cold
I'll be thinking about you, about you.

When I run out of air to breathe
It’s your ghost I see.
I'll be thinking about you, about you.

Cos it was almost love, it was almost love.
It was almost love, it was almost love.
