While We Slept in Burning Shades - Jolly

Look in the mirror and what do you see

A stranger always looking back at me

It doesn’t think to turn away

It doesn’t seem to know me anyway

Stay in this place where we never part

See the happiness it brings, you took away

The only thing I had left me lying on my own

You couldn’t wait and I understand, those times

Won’t come back again, you took away the only thing

I stare until the view comes clear, I remember knowing you

Were everywhere, still clinging to that one last memory

Of a time when I was unaware, of how this would compare

I thought you’d stay to sleep in burning shades

I thought you’d stay, yesterday
