Prehistoric

I know this will mess things up tonight

But god it feels so good to close my eyes

I'll say that I've been trying to move on

We both know I'm not



It may be different now but the pattern won't wash out

Covers up our eyes, leaves us knots and severed ties

We follow new lines



I would trade this sleep for you in a heartbeat

But this weather will not lift

It leaves us shouting into cliffs without an echo

Each day you come closer

So close I can almost feel your breath on my shoulders 

But I know if I turn around you might run away again

Stuck like those prehistoric mammoths in the ice

Thaw me out and I won't close my eyes

Stuck like those prehistoric mammals in the ice

Thaw me out and I won't go to sleep tonight
