he talked to the stars in her sky
asking for answers but they never reply
he traces the scars on her skin
looking for something to make her give in

a whisper to a scream but nothing in between
it pulls him away every time

he says...
I'm only alive when you're by my side
I'm only alive when you're near

she braces herself for the fall
holding to secrets that she can barely recall
she traces the tears on his face
looking for something she can never replace

a whisper to a scream but nothing in between
it pulls her away every time

she says...
I'm only alive when you're by my side
I'm only alive when you're near
