After The Sirens - We Buy Jewlery When the Love Runs Out lyrics

I have been both lover and beloved, unrequited Dispa**ionate and quiet around you And when I am old, when the skin under my eyes Stretches to wrap around the things I've seen What will it mean that I didn't take a chance on you? Didn't get lost in a glance from you? This fragile balance, this delicate palace where one left Puts two people on two different paths But if I hold out my hands to you It doesn't make it right, it doesn't make it right I want more for my life than my name in lights My name in lights! I've read books and understood them Understood the looks you gave me When I sent you a letter from Bennington Telling you that I couldn't leave his grave without a poem of my own And all I wrote about was having you and not having you I want more for my life than my name in lights!
