Lyrics

Lean back and swallow the key to your heart
You're hiding in your shallow skin
And you're never gonna let me in

You've had a parachute on from the start
I know you wanna break your fall
But are you feeling anything at all?

    Everybody feels alone
    Everybody's on their own
    I wanna see the stars collide
    I wanna see the burning sky inside you

You wear a permanent smile on your face
But you're bleeding from the inside out
And you'll never say what it's about

But I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that it's a lie
That you never told me
But I guess you sold me all the same

    Chorus

        And I, I wanna go blind
        And I, I want you to blind me
        Just give me a sign

Don't go and tell me I don't want to know
That I'm better off in the dark
That you'll always be a shooting star

Cuz I know, yeah I know, yeah I know that it's a lie
You shouldn't told it
But I'll never hold it over you

    Chorus

Hi Josh. Thanks again for making my endorphins in my head run totally crazy! But theres one thing I've been thinking about. Is there a story behind your songs? Some personal meaning? I would love to hear what thoughts you had in your mind when you wrote your songs!

All the best.

Don't go and tell me you don't want to know
Don't go and tell me I don't want to know
Which is right?
