RADIUM GIRLS

Why are we loving each other 

With the worst in eachother?

A ten but she holds all your trauma against you 

As seasons go on 

They narrow the road 

We don’t walk with each other any more.

 

I’m lying when I say,

“I’d rather forget you”

Cause pain holds the memories

That nobody else will 

We glowed in the dark 

But radium girls 

Only see the light so many times 

 

Light the sky in me 

Draping stars 

That you’d never stay to see

Building clouds 

You turned a chapter into 

An empty era I found 

A lover and then I lost you

 

It seems like every summer 

It gets a bit colder 

Is it life in the Midwest

Or a chip on my shoulder? 

Cause damn 

At your darkest you called out 

But we can’t shine in every moment 

 

Light the sky in me 

Draping stars 

That you’d never stay to see

Building clouds 

You turned a chapter into 

An empty era I found 

A lover and then I lost 

 

If forgiveness finds your soul 

Don’t let me know 

Just let it go 

No memories at 2 am 

Cause I’ve let it go 

 

Let truth give light to many colors 

Cause I’m glowing in the dark 

Let truth give light to many colors 

Cause I’m glowing in the dark 

 

Light the sky in me 

Draping stars 

That you’d never stay to see

Building clouds 

You turned a chapter into 

An empty era I found 

A lover and then I lost you 

 

I gave you pieces of my life 

I ran through all the lights 

Thought you were something real cause you were close to paradise 

Loaded the barrel with my words

And watched the bullets fly

You took my love 

You took my love 

But never took the light
