Are you afraid of the dark?

[to kill this]

She says, "I've been waiting for you for quite some time now,
honey get undresed, turn the lights out, hop into bed now."

Calm down is what she tries to do as she sighs
and moans, she starts to spin and she's gone and it's done
and she's reminded so clearly by the sun on the hill
that tells her she just died a little bit

Inch by inch and mile by mile
hip by hip, you lose your smile
when you give it away to those
who take and never return

He says, "I've been thinking of you for quite some time tonight.
Under streetlights and beneath shadows,
I thought of hwo to say I wanna go
as far as I can with you holding my hand."
he forces a laugh and stands.

"Stop being so demanding" is what he says to himself,
yells in his head over and over and over and over again.
he's shed too many layers, too much wall.
His defenses fall, so he leaves.

Inch by inch and mile by mile
hip by hip, you lose your smile
when you give it away to those
who take and never return

"Wait just a minute, before you go,
my head is spinnin and I think I know why
and I bet you do too, don't lie.
you hide it but I see it in your eyes.
So don't be scared, we're not prepared;
but I'd like to feel alive
just this one in my life,
with your body by mine.
Doesn't that sound alright?
Don't leave me to sleep alone,
so dead, so cold tonight."

Inch by inch and mile by mile
hip by hip, you lose your smile
when you give it away to those
who take and never return

Bit by bit and kiss by kiss
you start to live again
when you let go of your head
and grab onto your heart
you'll start to thrive again
you'll burn so bright again
