Illuminate Lyrics by Elise Trouw

Unraveling

2017

[Verse 1]
You know that we both play the
games that make us different from them
The edges of our lips bend into
endless patterns.
And even though we couldn't be
forever I still feel an actual connection.
Reality stands behind us,
teasing the child inside of me.
[Chorus]
Stand up, and think straight,
'til we both fall in love again
My heart's mistake
Days in, nights out,
'til we both know we're lost again
Your love illuminates.
[Verse 2]
They think they know what's best
so they just call this puppy love
But I've seen a million others falling
down this rabbit hole
And it's not because we're young,
no one knows the difference
Between the wanting and affection.
Can't help but question the bitter
people who don't know how to feel.
[Chorus]
Stand up, and think straight,
'til we both fall in love again
My heart's mistake
Days in, nights out,
'til we both know we're lost again
Your love illuminates.
[Verse 3]
Don't tell me I haven't lived yet.
I am alive and this is real.
[Chorus]
Stand up, and think straight,
'til we both fall in love again
My heart's mistake
Days in, nights out,
'til we both know we're lost again
Your love illuminates.
[Outro]
Your love illuminates.
Your love illuminates.
Your love illuminates.
