We need to eat lyrics

She grows silent, the light falls

Does it scare you?

Does it chew you to the bone?

I’m sorry, I didn’t know

Then I won’t put the lights out

Though you hate to undress before my eyes

For your pale skin is in need of summerlight

I say: You need to eat

She says: I’ll feed on your breath

What if I leave?

She says: Without you I’ll be dead

I need some sleep

but I can’t let her alone

and if I leave

I’d be afraid of coming home

She grows silent, the light falls

Cause it scares you

and I can’t help but smile

And your best friend has to be the morninglight

I say: You need to eat

She says: I’ll feed on your breath

What if I leave?

She says: Without you I’ll be dead

I need some sleep

but I can’t let her alone

and if I leave

I’d be afraid of coming home

I need some sleep

but I can’t let her alone

I’m losing you

I’m aware of the words I’m using

Losing you…

If you really have to know

I’m sorry but I have to let you go

I say: You need to eat

She says: I’ll feed on your breath

What if I leave?

She says: Without you I’ll be dead

I need some sleep

but I can’t let her alone

and if I leave

I’d be afraid of coming home
