I'll sing the same old song,
a hymn for all I've lost. -
-
And I'll use you as a warning sign
that if you talk enough sense,
then you'll lose your mind. -
And I'll use you as a focal point
so I don't lose sight of what I want.
And I've moved further than I thought I could,
but I missed you more than I thought I would.
And I'll use you as a warning sign
that if you talk enough sense,
then you'll lose your mind. -
Talk some sense to me.

This is just another sad song.
I can't deny that I've been needing one,
and that the world is always at fault,
and we did nothing. How did we do wrong?
And I've been thinking that when we thought
the world would break us, that we weren't wrong.
But it's just never been the world outside,
and sonder kind of has me terrified.
And I'm so sorry I can't find the time.
Spend all my days over-preoccupied.
And I've been thinkin bout how I'd react
if you were me and I was ghosted out.
And I know I should try more,
but I've been so caught in my own small s--- that I can't see
past the nothing around me.
But I've been trying
really f---ing hard not to try so hard.
Really f---ing hard just to let go.
Really f---ing hard not to try so hard,
and realize I've nowhere left to go. -
I felt a break in a sacred place
where your hands don't heal.
These are the reasons you're ruled by the things you feel.
Out of the deep waters, and all their intricacies.
This is the real face of all your enemies.
I felt you escape into empty space
where my heart can't feel.
Down in that darkness,
you met all the things you feared.
And I knew,
I knew there was nothing I could do.
Could you stomach it anymore?
Could you stand to be a breath away?
Can you feel the way your face distorts?
Did you think that it could be this way?
I can hear you from behind the door.
I can feel you from a mile away.
As you're growing out of my control,
will you watch me as I fade away?
You can't escape forever
mistaking smoke for heaven's light.
It's not follow or a fade to black and white.
Oh, I could take you home,
pretend the best's still ahead.
Maybe in the sun you'll see
you got what you want,
but not what you need.
If I'm afraid,
then you are the darkness that made me feel this way.
Could you stomach it anymore?
Could you stand to be a breath away?
Can you feel the way your face distorts?
Did you think that it could be this way?
I can hear you from behind the door.
I can feel you from a mile away.
As you're growing out of my control,
will you watch me as I fade away?
Bless my darkness.
Bless my light.
I lost my soul in your skin tones now.
Bless my darkness.
Bless my light.
I lost my soul in your skin tones now.
Bless my darkness.
Bless my light.
I lost my soul in your skin tones now. -
What would it take for things to be quiet?
-
I know this isn't much,
but I know I could,
I could be better.
I don't think I deserve it.
Selflessness,
find your way into my heart.
All stars could be brighter.
All hearts could be warmer. -
I
could
be
better. -
-
I ran away from you-
now look how far I've got.
I shared some secrets that I hope you'd keep;
they're words that don't come out.
And I should've crashed the car the night I drove alone. -
And you talk like someone else.
-
You're killing me, kid,
but I know you're not trying to. -
I just thought that you should know,
if this is what happens when you go,
maybe next time, don't.
