Looking for salvation…

…

Broken windows
Broken hearts
Broken smiles
Miles apart

We are lost
We are sane
We feel the pain of the living
We hold it close again and again
Until the pain bleaches our skin with its colourless stains

We run and hide
Open to the flame
Looking for salvation again and again

Iridescent lives burning against the night sky
We never let go
We never die
