The Shadow and the Sun

You are the longing that I run from, the shadow and the Sun
You are the demon haunting me right after midnight
I've tried so hard to let you go, for the sake of self control
But here I am, going crazy in the moonlight again

Every single step, taking you away
Feels like punishment
Can't you see that I'm on my knees?
And I need relief, I'm addicted, why don't you feel the same?

How could I desire what I don't deserve?
I can't still the urge, your attention is heroin
Give me more of it, just a little bit
Only you can ease the pain

Oh it's tearing me apart
You're the nail in my coffin
And the beat to my heart

You are the longing that I run from, the shadow and the Sun
You're the demon haunting me right after midnight
I've tried so hard to let you go, for the sake of self control
But here I am, going crazy in the moonlight again

Every thought of you is another hit
I'm afraid to lose what I don't even have
It all, though I want it so badly
It's killing me, why don't you feel the same?

Know this can't go on, gotta break the spell
I tried everything, tried to cut you out of my skin
But you got back in
And the moment you're back is the moment you win

Oh! It's tearing me apart
You're the nail in my coffin
And the beat to my heart

Oh! It's driving me insane
You're the fire of the moth
Going into the flame

You are the longing that I run from, the shadow and the Sun
You're the demon haunting me right after midnight
I've tried so hard to let you go, for the sake of self control
But here I am, going crazy in the moonlight again

And I don't quite want this to end
If this is the closest I get
I'll live through this nightmare and savour this moment 'til dawn

You are the longing that I run from, the shadow and the Sun
You are the demon haunting me right after midnight
You are the longing that I run from, the shadow and the Sun
You're the demon haunting me right after midnight
I've tried so hard to let you go, for the sake of self control
But here I am, going crazy in the moonlight again

Again
Every single step, taking you away
Every single step, taking you away
Every single step, taking you away
Every single step feels like punishment
