Burning Doves

Behind a velvet rope, we hide in plain sight

We're dressed in black smoke, and have our hands tied

She says, "I see you babe," but we are both blind

Our bodies yearning for what we cannot find

The end is beginning and I'm falling

So take it or leave it cause I'm all in

We're too young to die today, to die today

But we're too broken to fly away, to fly away

Cause we both know better than to set ourselves on fire

All in the name of love

We're too young to be afraid to fly like burning doves

You've been on your knees praying for so long

When you close your eyes the words do not come

The end is beginning and you're falling

So take it or leave it cause I'm all in

We're too young to die today, to die today

But we're too broken to fly away, to fly away

Cause we both know better than to set ourselves on fire

All in the name of love

We're too young to be afraid to fly like burning doves

If you can show me, I can lift you up

And if you call my name, then I can see up

And I'm sorry, I'm sorry for the things we've done

We're falling, we're falling from a burning Sun

We flew too high looking for love

We knew the skies, but not well enough

We're too young to die today, to die today

But we're too broken to fly away, to fly away

Cause we both know better than to set ourselves on fire

All in the name of love

We're too young to be afraid to fly like burning doves
