In the middle of my eyes
 Are the blackhills of tonight
 And you can lean on me for now
 I am frozen in time
 And when the sun burns I'll turn red
 But I will feel so close to dead
 And I will visualize a tragedy
 And blame you for it
 I get why you would long for your past
 I know why you would run away so fast

 And I'll try to preserve the routine
 And I don't want to discuss what it means
 And you're the only one I want watching me

 In the night of full consort
 When the stars are holding court
 We will be in another world
 Where my clarity's restored
 And this charming picture of
 Hysteria in love
 It could fade or wrinkle up
 I don't hold faith in much
 I know that I feel more than you do
 I selfishly want you here to stick to

 And I'll try to preserve the routine
 And I don't want to discuss what it means
 And you're the only one I want watching me
