Come Into My Silence

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I keep one chair beside the window Though no one knows I wait Dust gathers on the silver picture And frost climbs up the gate I wear the night like borrowed clothing The collar hides my skin If you can bear the quiet hallway Come closer, let me in [Pre-Chorus] I have been counting every footstep Past the chapel stone Say my name beneath your breath now You won't leave alone [Chorus] I'm a vampire, staying alone So close, come near my door Are you ready for the catching up We've been avoiding for? I have a thirst I cannot soften A hundred years to explain If you step into my silence You may not walk out the same [Verse 2] The kettle cools beside the mirror Two cups beneath the lace Your reflection should be standing there But I still cannot find your face I saved the letters, tied with black thread Your promises in blue Every word became a window Every window led to you [Pre-Chorus] I have been counting every heartbeat Underneath the floor Turn the handle, cross the threshold There is no before [Chorus] I'm a vampire, staying alone So close, come near my door Are you ready for the catching up We've been avoiding for? I have a thirst I cannot soften A hundred years to explain If you step into my silence You may not walk out the same [Bridge] Don't bring a candle Don't bring a prayer Bring only the truth And leave it there I know your footsteps I know your voice You can run from the castle But you made your choice [Final Chorus] I'm a vampire, staying alone Now your hand is on the door Are you ready for the catching up We've been waiting for? I have a heart I cannot soften But it still remembers your name Come into my silence slowly And I will never lose you again [Outro] Stay until the morning Stay until it fades If you came to catch up with me Don't be afraid
