It's been close to a year now Not that we'd ever count Keep it professional Wouldn't want people to talk I mean, we barely talk as it is now Blood on the streets of a city on fire Tourniquets keeping our hearts from our minds Hiding in sapphire ivory towers, but we won't return I'll keep my name tag close to my chest Just promise me you won't forget where you are I'm swimming in circles or drowned in your light A man in a polaroid The stars over mission street sparkle and shine To light up some future that never could be Your voice like a megaphone quietly burns, but it's the silence that gets to me Now the ashes have cleared out, fondness comes from the fall I am a visitor I wouldn't get chances to be a fresh coffee cup in the morning Smoke in your hair, regret on your face Little black tears in your little black lace Covered in irony you'll never know Don't watch it unfold I'll keep my name tag close to my chest Just promise me you won't forget when we were Swimming in circles or drowned in the night Drunk eyes in a polaroid The stars over mission street crackle and fall to light up some people we never could be Your voice from the buzzer, I quietly turn, but it's the silence that gets to me Don't stay up, don't wait for me I'll come back, I always do eventually I curse at this city, I curse at the airport, I curse at the train lines that took me to you I scream out your name in the dead of the night like somehow you'd hear in the morning I pray or I dream or I turn off the lights or I lie down pretending to sleep I scream at the top of my lungs til I can't anymore but it's the silence that gets to me
