haunted by you

Future Islands

Pensive and quiet
Like forever was
In a chrysalis, she waits for us
And she takes from us
Oh sweet life, why give and take from us?
It s all for you
It s all for truth

Feels like I m holding you down
But you won t leave me alone
And you re holding me now
But I m so far away from you

There s no home
No home like the one I found in you
Now you re running away
Oh, to feel like a child again

And the song he sings, he brings to life for you
It s all for you
It s all for you

And he words he places on the page just can t admit
This song s for you
This song s for you
