Skylight Motion Picture - Self-Fulfilling Prophecies

I want to get lost with you
let everything slip away
but i don’t want to keep you hostage if it’s all a mistake
don’t hold a candle for me
you couldn’t leave it alone
we gotta pay the debt on the time that we borrowed
it was a hell of a show
we put on at the revue
but there were limitations on what i was able to do
all of this to prove a point
without regard for the cost
i never meant for this loss

What are we fighting for? A long delay
What are we looking for, so far away

i’m only dragging you down
i’m dimming all of the lights
i’m just afraid of what i will do if i don’t make this right
self-fulfilling prophecies
they organize all the grief
to oversimplify in my mind’s eye all the deceit

You need more, for me to stay
Call it a jealousy, with no one to blame
What are we fighting for? A long delay
What are we looking for, so far away

i wanna turn down the noise
i wanna switch to reset
the sun is going down and i just know that we will regret
when everything is at stake
how can i really move on
i know this wasn’t just chance it was a phenomenon

Easy now, we lost today
Baby I’m sorry, that I can’t change
You need more, for me to stay
Call it a jealousy, with no one to blame
What are we fighting for? A long delay
What are we looking for, so far away
