As Lions - Skin

When I heard that sound
When the walls came down
I was thinking about you, about you
When my skin grows old
When my breath runs cold
I'll be thinking about you, about you

Seconds from my heart
A bullet from the dark
Helpless, I surrender
Shackled by your love
Holding me like this
Poison on your lips
Only when it's over
Silence hits so hard

It was almost love
It was almost love
It was almost love
It was almost love

When I heard that sound
When the walls came down
I was thinking about you, about you
When my skin grows old
When my breath runs cold
I'll be thinking about you, about you
When I run out of air to breathe
It's your ghost I'll see
I'll be thinking about you, about you

Cause it was almost love
It was almost

We bleed ourselves in vain
How tragic is this game?
Turn around, I'm holding on
To someone, but the love is gone
Carrying the load
With wings that feel like stone
Knowing that we nearly fell
So far, now it's hard to tell

Yes, we came so close
It was almost love
It was almost love
It was almost love

When I heard that sound
When the walls came down
I was thinking about you, about you
When my skin grows old
When my breath runs cold
I'll be thinking about you, about you
When I run out of air to breathe
It's your ghost I'll see
I'll be thinking about you, about you

I reached out for your hand
When the walls were caving in
When I'll see you on the other side
We can try all over again

When I heard that sound
When the walls came down
I was thinking about you, about you
When my skin grows old
When my breath runs cold
I'll be thinking about you, about you
When I run out of air to breathe
It's your ghost I'll see
I'll be thinking about you, about you

Cause it was almost love
It was almost love
It was almost love
It was almost love
