Lyrics Eclipse – Violette

Every day, it’s like I’m drowning in my thoughts
All the words I said to you could never be enough, no
Everything we’ve been through, all our wildest memories
Never stood for anything the day you chose to leave, yeah

Now look at what we’ve done
I never thought it’d come to this
And we’ve only just begun
And you’re already over it

Looking out to the face of something beautiful
Wide awake but I can’t tell if it’s worth it all
Or if it was just a lie
Pray to God, thinking you’d let me survive the fall
Wonder when you’ll see that it was all for show
Eclipsing my heart

Walking through our shadow, do you feel the burn
Hoping that I might forgive you
Hoping that you might just learn
Saying that you’re worth another chance, I don’t believe
Trying to fight against your blinding light
But it’s so damn hard to see

I’m tired of always reaching for the brighter side of you
I’m taking the chance to let my weakness shine through me
I need relief

Falling in the eye of the storm
Stepping into a new day, new dawn
Breaking through the barrier that kept me safe and warm
Letting go of my trust in you
Giving in to something new
Finding there’s a reason for my existence in this world
And it’s not you
No it’s not you

Now look at what we’ve done

Looking out to the face of something beautiful
Wide awake but I can’t tell if it’s worth it all
Or if it was just a lie
Pray to God, thinking you’d let me survive the fall
Wonder when you’ll see that it was all for show
Eclipsing my heart
Again…
