Shadowboxer Lyrics

I wake to soft grins
Given leave to question myself

Why do you protect her?
Why do you fly these skies?
Do you know your heading?
You have no answer

I grip tightly at nothing
No words pass my lips

Sirens
There's been a breach
I won't let them take you

Purpose
A controlled nosedive
I will fight them for you

Foolish
From atop my spire
Taken an interest in you

He watches us
He reads our moves
Our tells, he taunts
I drain out blue
I can't hold on
Red out

False triggers
Just jokes to him
Split movement
Time restricts
I clench tightly at nothing
No breath passes my lips

What am I?
A new side of the way you fly
I can't believe the sight
Of all the fear from what's mine

I sleep to sounds of ruin
