27CLUB - Handsome Reflection

Take the late train home
Reflections in the window
I see a handsome man
The adjacent seat is occupied
It brings new purpose to his life
And I tell him

It'll be all right
Now that someone's here to scare away the lonely night
Everything you haven't done and everything you will
Are clawing and I promise you that I will keep them still
And even as a cloudy night becomes a cloudy day
And weeks and weeks of rain
I'll do everything to keep her warm and dry
You can give it all to me

I could keep it in a jar
I could hold the lid on tight
I could turn it all to dust
If you keep her one more night

Take the late train home
Stacks of pine trees in the window
In the arms of dusk
Orange crests the canopy
Setting fire to the trees
And suddenly

It's not scary anymore
Having someone next to you erases your before
Someone who can lift your weights and occupy your time
Honestly I'm shocked that I could ever call her mine
Reflection, I am begging you and kneeling at your feet
Don't fuck this up for me
And I promise I can make it worth your while
Just give everything to me

I could keep it in a jar
I could hold the lid on tight
I could turn it all to dust
If you keep her one more night

Even as a cloudy night becomes a cloudy day
And weeks and weeks of rain
Even if we never see the sun again
Even if the oceans boil
And the atmosphere decays
I won't let you suffocate until my dying breath
Even if my bones all break
And my brain and lungs give out
I promise you we'll make it through somehow
Just give everything to me

I could keep it in a jar
I could screw the lid on tight
I could keep it next to you
If you ever need some light
