Alibis
Birthday Massacre, The
Hide and Seek (2012)

I saw you in a photograph
The answer is in your eyes
It's dragging me back
To everything else we left behind.

You're hiding inside a perfect life
A picture of us
I'm hearing you whisper alibis

There is a shadow here
But there's no light behind me
The stains of blood on the floor
Serve to remind me
The time is drawing near
Turns like a knife inside me
I've never wanted it more
Come stand beside me

The walls are moving closer now
This feeling won't wash away
The message is clear
"There's nobody here. Just walk away."
I'm waiting for you
I'm all alone
And through the wall
I'm hearing you whisper alibis

There is a shadow here
But there's no light behind me
The stains of blood on the floor
Serve to remind me
The time is drawing near.
Turns like a knife inside me
I've never wanted it more
Come stand beside me

There's a shadow that we cast aside
In the blood that we left behind
I've never wanted it more
Come stand beside me
There was never any light behind
Feel it turn like a knife inside me
I've never wanted it more
Come stand beside me

Come stand beside me
