Vacancy Lyrics by Dead Lakes

2017

I let your smile sink in again
It makes me think of how we ended up as friends
Didn't trust me enough to just let me in
Never could see what we could have been

Now all I feel is vacancy
A silhouette of what I couldn't be
Convince me you're all that I need
I'm drowning, drowning into subtlety

Like the sunrise, like the sunset
You're the calm shores, and I'm the shipwreck
You're the novel, and I'm just the chapter
I'll read you again, but I'm not what you're after

Stay then depart, given no time to mend
Back and forth like your words are playing over again
Listen to whispers from your trusted friends
Back and forth like your words are playing over again

If we fall apart, will we make it out?
Follow me somewhere that we won't be found
Lost in eyes, lost in heart
Cold my wasted love

Pull my string, and watch me dance for you
It's all I ever do
You strung me up and let me play the fool
Was never good enough for you

Was I the shore you crashed on
Until you decided to recede?
Recede, recede
All alone in empty seas

Stay then depart, given no time to mend
Back and forth like your words are playing over again
Listen to whispers from your trusted friends
Back and forth like your words are playing over again

If we fall apart, will we make it out?
Follow me somewhere that we won't be found
Lost in eyes, lost in heart
Cold my wasted love

Everything happens for a reason
That's what I'm forced to believe in
Remember when we'd hold hands in secret
Through tears breathe out and breathe in

Now all I feel is vacancy
A silhouette of what I couldn't be
Convince me you're all that I need
I'm drowning, drowning into subtlety

Everything happens for a reason
That's what I'm forced to believe in
Remember when we'd hold hands in secret
Through tears breathe out and breathe in

Now all I feel is vacancy
A silhouette of what I couldn't be
Convince me you're all that I need
I'm drowning, drowning into subtlety

Everything happens for a reason
That's what I'm forced to believe in
Remember when we'd hold hands in secret
Through tears breathe out and breathe in

Breathe
Lose sleep
We were promises you could never keep
I stay awake at night by something lost inside
To the memories [?]
Will you think of me?

Everything happens for a reason
That's what I'm forced to believe in
Remember when we'd hold hands in secret
Through tears breathe out and breathe in

Breathe
Lose sleep
We were promises you could never keep
I stay awake at night by something lost inside
To the memories [?]
Will you think of me?
