The fall of souls

We could kiss for hours
And we could talk for days
And we could die tonight together
So we’d be together forever
And our colours wouldn’t fade

Maybe if I leave you here
Maybe if we fall
We’ll come crashing down to earth
And realize that we’ve lost it all

Will you join me for the party tonight?
Will you help me set it right?
Don’t try and help, just die to join me

And if I never find you
And if we leave tonight
I’ll go forever with my fight
With you always in my heart
