One Minute Shy of Forever

from What It Is by NICK

lyrics

Your love’s a candy for my bitter soul. I eat you when I want to lose control. I’m in a prison of my own design, just waiting here until it’s my time. That can't be right.

Your love’s a blanket on my shivering heart. I crawl inside you when I can’t make it start. I’m always chasing things that disappear. Now more than ever I need you here by my side...

For one minute shy of forever. That’s all I want from you. In the whole world, it’s just the blinking of an eye. Oh, one minute shy of forever, and I’ll leave the rest for you. Please promise me you’ll stay.

Your love’s a hammer on my half-dead brain. I slam you when I need to feel the pain. I used to think I’d die and reach the light. Now I believe in nothing. That can’t be right.

And I used to be so bold, did whatever I wanted to do, and worried about it later. And though I tried so hard for so long to find the truth, it doesn’t matter now. ‘Cause I could never see second chances. I could never see through the lies. I never know which way I’
m headed. I need you here by my side.

I’m wanting more of you than you can give, it’s true. And if I ask you to, will you come with me? Will you come with me?

For one minute shy of forever. That’s all I want from you. In the whole world, it’s just the blinking of an eye. Oh, one minute shy of forever, and I’ll leave the rest for you. Please promise me you’ll stay...

‘ Til then.... Oh, one minute shy of forever. One minute shy of forever....

...Your love’s the only thing that gets me high. Now more than ever I need you by my side for one minute shy of forever.
