Dear Ana (feat. Jai Wolf) Lyrics

I can't keep faking it
I smile real wide with a mouth of diamonds
But the shine is counterfeit
When we're dressed in white, wearing Halloween outfits

I'm obsessed with protecting you
Your trigger's worth dreaming, a priced possession
I spend hours perfecting you
'Til you're bigger than me on my knee's reflection, praying

Dear Ana, I can't live without you
But it's killing me to keep you alive
And dear Ana, I'm afraid to out you
I know your secrets and you know mine

And you have carried me away
For too long
You have carried me away
Now I'm gone

Now I'm gone

I know I keep saying it
That tomorrow's last time, we'll be last and final
And I keep engraving it
When I climb the pearl gates, I recite your Bible

I'm obsessed with believing you
You're a sweet 16, blowing out my candles
And I'm tired of needing you
Going dizzy with dreams that evolve and cancel, praying

Dear Ana, I can't live without you
But it's killing me to keep you alive
And dear Ana, I'm afraid to out you
I know your secrets and you know mine

And you have carried me away
For too long
You have carried me away
Now I'm gone

Now I'm gone

You're my best friend, you're my weakness
You're my angel, you're my demons
You're my virgin in a black dress
I'm on my knees again for you

Dear Ana, I can't live without you
But it's killing me to keep you alive
And dear Ana, I'm afraid to out you
I know your secrets and you know mine

And you have carried me away
For too long
You have carried me away
Now I'm gone

Dear Ana, dear Ana
Dear Ana, I can't live without you
Dear Ana, dear Ana
Dear Ana, I can't live without you
