Banshee Lyrics by Valiant Hearts

Yonder

2021

[Intro]
Oceans dark as night
Lap at shores of stardust
And beaches of light

[Verse 1]
Knife in the back, razor to the cuff
One more chance to call my bluff
But I know you won't
I know this story well, you're just pretending
Let's skip the start and cut right to the ending
Where we both know that there's no gold
At the end of the rainbow

[Pre-Chorus]
I watch her skin turn white and pale
Like she's in a fairy tale
I see her ghost and I hear her wail
That she poisoned her own well

[Chorus]
I still see her silhouette
Sitting at thе edge of my bed
Wondеring what more I could have done
To get those thoughts out of her head
I still see her silhouette (Silhouette)
Sitting at the edge of my bed (Of my bed)
Wondering what more I could have done
To save her from herself in the end

[Verse 2]
We all find the same escape in the end
We close our eyes and just drift in
Oceans dark as night
Lap at shores of stardust
And beaches of light (Light)

[Pre-Chorus]
Slow (Slow)
Mercy (Mercy)
Like a moth to a flame
You burn yourself again

[Chorus]
Don't you get it
My faults are just the same
And I know that you're intent on running away
Can't shake this sorrow
It always hangs on even when I let go

[Bridge]
And now you've given up trying to play the hero
'Cause every corner that you turn, your score resets to zero
Will you bend or break, every fibre in your body's so brittle
Cut me out of your chest, leaving nothing in the middle

[Pre-Chorus]
I still see your silhouette
At the edge of my bed
Nothing more I could have done
To save her in the end

[Chorus]
I still see her silhouette (Silhouette)
Sitting at the edge of my bed (Of my bed)
Wondering what more I could have done
To get those thoughts out of her head
I still see her silhouette (Silhouette)
Sitting at the edge of my bed (Of my bed)
Wondering what more I could have done
To save her from herself in the end (In the end)

[Outro]
I know this story well, you're just pretending
Let's skip the start and cut right to the ending
Where we both know thtat there's no gold
At the end of the rainbow
