Lover in the Doorway

Time's up
Did you wake up suffocated?
It's your one chance to go
Leave before I get to you
Lover in the doorway

I'm the tears you cried for her
The passion that insists
The fear that hides in the darkness of your heart
The love that feels right when it's hated

Run before I get to you
The game's never over until you lose
In the stillness of each morning
Can I only find the breeze of your ghost
Had you never discovered my secret

Run for this is too much
...or not enough
Run in the dark
Your time is up

She showed you to hide true colors
She destroyed your inner
Poked holes in your lungs
Until your shadow became a one-man show

Be my night runner
I'll be your fugitive
Until love kidnaps us.
