    You

    by: Matt Skiba

    Its alive once again
    I feel it pounding in my chest and it hurts like it should
    A sharp pain that feels so good
    With your arms ‘round my neck leaving me a melting wreck
    Now with you by my side I can breathe once again I have nothing to hide
    And You - I watched you dancing, you
    Out of the ashes, you - dreams of demons kissing in the fire so deeply
    You - ya found me hopeless
    You - ya gave me solace
    You - dying for your kiss I can’t imagine my life without you
    Its alive once again
    I feel it pounding in my head and it kills all the pain
    It’s been powerless vicodin with your hands on my face
    Pulling me out of my hiding place with your mouth upon mine
    I can breathe once again I do nothing but smile
    And you - I watched you dancing
    You - out of the ashes, you - dreams of demons kissing in the fire so deeply
    You - ya found me hopeless
    You - ya gave me solace
    you - I’m dying for your kiss I can’t imagine my life without you
    Dance with me, dance with me, dance with me
    you’re the name of the place where time stands still
    Dance with me, dance with me, dance with me
    Dismembering this memory its true, I lost myself in you
    You - I watched you dancing you
    You - out of the ashes
    You - Dreams of demons kissing in the fire so deeply
    You - ya found me hopeless
    You - ya gave me solace
