Flicker in the Dark (version 2)

Verse 1

Copper veins run through the air

Held up like a single thread of hair

I lose myself in someone else's space

Every pulse becomes another pulse on my own skin

The room is one great thrumming frame

This isn't mine, this isn't yours

Just the sound we swallow down into our bones

Pre-Chorus

Let it build where it wants to go

No name to hold onto. No weight to let go

Chorus

I don't know whose hands are holding me

But I like the feeling of losing myself completely

Flicker in the dark, skin on skin

Burning down until there's nothing left inside

Verse 2

Glass is warm against my neck

Every heartbeat sounds exactly right

Not a single one that doesn't match this thrumming light

The floor is full and I am gone

Your eyes turn black as we move

Not your name. Not what you wear. Just the hum of where we go

Pre-Chorus

Let it build where it wants to go

No name to hold onto. No weight to let go

Chorus

I don't know whose hands are holding me

But I like the feeling of losing myself completely

Flicker in the dark, skin on skin

Burning down until there's nothing left inside

Bridge

Not a hand. Not a face.

Just this one great warm place we occupy together

Chorus

I don't know whose hands are holding me

But I like the feeling of losing myself completely

Flicker in the dark, skin on skin

Burning down until there's nothing left inside
