Mayflies - Benjamin Francis Leftwich

I’m wide awake

Colours start to run

Giving in, like I’m staring at the sun

I’m burning up, cause you say that you love

Me, but I know there’s a life I’m giving up

In another life, like mayflies, we’ll take over the sky

In another world, away from here

I don’t wanna talk about it, afraid of what I’m gonna do

I don’t wanna let your light in, I’ve got enough to lose

I don’t wanna say it’s something, afraid I’m gonna make it true

We’ll be lying in the pieces, I’ve got enough to lose

I’ve got enough to lose

Still awake

Nothing seems to shine

For better days

What will we leave behind?

You’re making me choose, but I can’t lie

Maybe we’re a love for another time

In another life, like mayflies, we’ll take over the sky

In another world, away from here

I don’t wanna talk about it, afraid of what I’m gonna do

I don’t wanna let your light in, I’ve got enough to lose

I don’t wanna say it’s something, afraid I’m gonna make it true

We’ll be lying in the pieces, I’ve got enough to lose

I’ve got enough to lose

I’ve got enough to lose

I don’t wanna talk about it, afraid of what I’m gonna do

I don’t wanna let your light in, I’ve got enough to lose

I don’t wanna say it’s something, afraid I’m gonna make it true

We’ll be lying in the pieces, I’ve got enough to lose

I’ve got enough to lose

I’ve got enough to lose

I’ve got enough to lose

I’ve got enough to lose

I’ve got enough to lose
