Serenade Lyrics

By the time this reaches you
We will be
A pale gray memory
Of everything I once loved
A still cold heart,
That long stopped beating.
And by the time you wake up
Bitter, and alone
With nothing but your chemicals
To keep you awake all night
I will be galaxies from here
But I'll still miss you so my dear.

Serenade
You're sleeping with angels tonight
Serenade
I'm sleeping with eyes open wide
Serenade you
For the last time.

Well this is more than I deserve
And I know
That I am nothing more
Than a trophy that lost it's shine.
Your perfect prize,
Was just a person after all.

And as I watch the ocean
swallow up the sun,
To set these waves on fire,
Rip open the sky for us
So I can finally get away
So I can finally find a place where I can be free.
(serenade)
Serenade
You're sleeping with angels tonight
Serenade
I'm sleeping with eyes open wide
Serenade you
For the last time.

Serenade
I'm breaking the silence tonight
Serenade
You're hoping the feeling will die
Serenade you
For the last time.

So take your leave,
I'll take my time
Your lips are shaking
And your eyes
They are afraid to meet mine
How fast you break
From who you are
The part of me you loved
Is now the hand that rips us apart.
Go change your face
Go change your heart
Go find your place
And put an end to this all
And when you find
That you're back where you began
There will be nothing left
There will be nothing left

So just remember that this
Is how you wanted it.
Now just remember it's exactly how you wanted it all.

Serenade
You're sleeping with angels tonight
Serenade
I'm sleeping with eyes open wide
Serenade you
For the last time.

Serenade
I'm ending this story tonight
And you,
You will be sleeping with your demons and lies
Serenade you
For the last time.
