Four Letter Names

from Dreamstate by Eric Francis

/

lyrics

As I walk along, there’s a strange familiar series of faces in my path
That stretch along the sky like clouds that spell memories of you
They stay that way as we stumble along this road that we call history
Who are we anyway? Where does our story go?
Let’s take a chance on us tonight, it might be all right, it might be love
Let’s forget all our fears and just pretend that we’ll be just fine, come home with me tonight
And if it all goes wrong, we can just blame each other
Destroy the evidence, pretend it never happened
We always knew that this would not be easy
We are both still haunted by shadows from our past
You tell me all the time that you want this to last forever
So then you should stop trying to tear down what we’ve built together
There is light to be found in this darkness
Sometimes you need a little time away from the mirror
To change how you see yourself in your reflection
Let’s take a chance on us tonight, it might be all right, it might be love
Let’s forget all our fears and just pretend that we’ll be just fine, don’t leave me here tonight
Open the floodgates, let reality come crashing in
Open the floodgates, let reality in
Like the biggest of tidal waves, like the biggest tidal wave
Count the letters in your name, are they the same as mine?
Count the letters in your name, will they be the same someday?
Will we outrun the shadows, or will they catch up to us?
Do you want to try? Just say the word
