Thirty Days

Lyrics

Verse 1
Clawing from the depths
hell haunt my name
Nightmares stole lives of many
I wore the blame
They earned me the name
Demon Hard by life
No one should live like this
no love, no light

Rules that governed my existence
stone in my chest
No caring, no intimacy
I learned to never rest
Then I saw her
Dream in the doorway
Beautiful, brave, bold
made the dark look away

Pre-Chorus
Thirty days on my wrist
thirty days on my mind
I tell myself play it cold
but I’m running out of time
She looked at me once
like she knew me first
Like she saw the boy beneath
the curse and thirst

Chorus
Thirty days ain’t enough
(Thirty days ain’t enough)
She is mine, she is mine
(Thirty days ain’t enough)
I follow my rule
but my heart don’t obey
Thirty days ain’t enough
when Dream says my name

Verse 2
Dream
brilliant bad ass family fixer queen
She walks in a room
and the air turns clean
Negotiating smooth
never raising her voice
Ruffled every storm
with one calm choice

Never met a situation
she can’t talk out of
Tense hands, hard faces
she turns doubt to love
Then she crossed my family
and I braced for the blow
But she smiled like a key
and I had to let go

Pre-Chorus
Thirty days on my wrist
thirty days in the air
I tried to keep my heart locked
but she was already there
She looked at me once
and the walls fell flat
Like she loved the man I hid
under all of that

Chorus
Thirty days ain’t enough
(Thirty days ain’t enough)
She is mine, she is mine
(Thirty days ain’t enough)
I follow my rule
but my heart don’t obey
Thirty days ain’t enough
when Dream says my name

Bridge
If I was made from the dark
she was made from the flame
She don’t run from the ruin
she learns every name
One touch, one glance
and the whole room bends
I came in as a demon
I might leave as her man

Final Chorus
Thirty days ain’t enough
(Thirty days ain’t enough)
She is mine, she is mine
(Thirty days ain’t enough)
I follow my rule
but my heart don’t obey
Thirty days ain’t enough
when Dream says my name

Thirty days ain’t enough
(Thirty days ain’t enough)
Dream, don’t walk away
(Thirty days ain’t enough)
I know the rule was hard
I know what I became
Thirty days ain’t enough
I want you past the pain
