Joi Noir - Used to Be Lyrics

Release my gaze
You know it's coming easy
I let you decide
Those playful words
Now they're cutting deeper
Are we numb inside?

Open these gates
Substance without a reason
We used to be safe
We used to be
We used to be
Charming old days
But your beauty's gone out of season
We used to be sane
We used to be
We used to be

Repeat and fade
I never made it easy
To be on my side
Fall on that sword
My precious kamikaze
Or have one last try

Open these gates
Substance without a reason
We used to be safe
We used to be
We used to be
Wasted champagne
The party's gone
It's out of season
We used to be sane
We used to be
We used to be

Preachers disappeared
But nobody's crying
Far away from here
He gets older
Falling asleep on my shoulder

Open this gate
Substance without a reason
We used to be safe
We used to be
We used to be
Wasted champagne
The party's gone
It's out of season
We used to be sane
We used to be
We used to be
