Friction Burns

I have earned these friction burns though I've not felt your skin

Tied my hands behind my back, for touching you's a sin

Shadowed in your temptation, the light starts to creep in

But when does it begin to illuminate a faith with fear and courage win

I have learned that tides can turn if you just catch the wind

But I have drowned too many times in the depths where your love swims

I always took a head start and kept running for the fear it would just tear us apart

But I'm never going to waste, never going to waste, never going to waste your heart

There's no beauty in this dark art, for I'm not destined to play that part

So, I'm never going to waste your heart

No, I'm never going to waste, never going to waste

Never going to waste your heart on a love like that

On a love like that

I have earned these friction burns by holding my words in

The language I keep searching for gets buried deep within

But the truth can't lie in your dark green eyes

For all the pain they've seen

They deserve some peace where your war can cease

And there's no side left to blame

I always took a head start and kept running for the fear it would just tear us apart

But I'm never going to waste, never going to waste, never going to waste your heart

There's no beauty in this dark art, for I'm not destined to play that part

So, I'm never going to waste your heart

No, I'm never going to waste, never going to waste

Never going to waste your heart on a love like that, love like that, love like that, love like that

On a love like that

I always took a head start and kept running for the fear it would just tear us apart

But I'm never going to waste, never going to waste, never going to waste your heart

There's no beauty in this dark art, for I'm not destined to play that part

So, I'm never going to waste your heart

No, I'm never going to waste, never going to waste, never going to waste your heart on a love like that

On a love like that
