Closer (Time Stops Breathing)

Picture yourself painted in black starlite skies
Like a painted canvas stained to white
Will make believe we were better of this way
Shadows taking shape in scarlet light

Give in, give up, and soak into the airwaves
Get up, get in, and bring yourself to me
Breathe in, breathe out, fingertips and heartbeats
Are all we need

Time stops breathing for a moment
If right here, right now, is all we've got
We'd better make it last
So take me and make me
A part of you apart from you tonight

Secrets on cell phones
And begged for in tongues
Behind our breath
Beneath our lungs

Closer to closure
Then we ever been
Before our bodies break and fall again

Give in, give up, and soak into the airwaves
Get up, get in, and bring yourself to me
Breathe in, breathe out, fingertips and heartbeats
Are all we need

Time stops breathing for a moment
If right here, right now, is all we've got
We'd better make it last
So take me and make me
A part of you apart from you tonight

Tonight, I'll pour myself around you
Come light, I'll learn to live without you
In a flash, you'll be gone like the moon at the dawn
Of a brand new day
And alone, alone, alone, I'll carry on

Time stops breathing for a moment
If right here, right now, is all we've got
We'd better make it last
So take me and make me
A part of you apart from you tonight
