Lyrics

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Halie Loren Smith
[00:01.000] 作词 : Halie Loren Smith
[00:04.000] Counting the years, counting the tears
[00:06.000] I’ve spent waiting on another you to finally bloom before me.
[00:12.000] I don’t know why I didn’t try wondering if we just didn’t fit
[00:17.000] instead of shrinking myself oh so small —
[00:21.000] too many feelings in my heart to hold them all.
[00:26.000] You saw the mess, but never saw the art…
[00:29.000] I was too much for you from the start.
[00:30.000]
[00:37.000] How to dismantle a life:
[00:40.300] Just take the first step out the door and keep going.
[00:45.000] All those unbearable nights
[00:48.300] are all that I need for my heart to gladly
[00:52.000] show me the way, yay, yay, yay,
[00:58.400] show me the way out.
[01:04.500] Everyone guessed, everyone tested us in subtle ways of saying
[01:09.500] “hey, you clearly made a mistake”. “
[01:13.000] You’ll never change, I’ll never change, let’s agree that neither of us should.
[01:18.000] We’re pretty good… for someone else.
[01:21.000] Aren’t we glad we didn’t make a baby, and that all we had
[01:26.500] was the silverware, the gravy boat, the sheets?
[01:30.000] There’s nothing much we care to keep.
[01:31.000]
[01:36.300] How to dismantle a life:
[01:40.000] Just take the first step out the door and keep going.
[01:44.500] All those unbearable nights
[01:47.400] are all that I need for my heart to gladly
[01:51.000] show me the way, show me the way out.
[02:03.000] Show me the way.
[02:07.000] I knew that day would come when I’d jump without any doubt.
[02:08.000]
[02:14.000] How to dismantle a life:
[02:17.200] Just take the first step out the door and keep going out of a house made of lies,
[02:25.300] ‘cause after the winds of truth start a-blowin’
[02:29.40] all the pieces start to fly,
[02:33.000] the walls tumble down all around on their own and
[02:38.000] suddenly you see the sky,
[02:41.300] the light that you need for your heart to gladly
[02:44.400] show you the way, yay, yay, yay,
[02:51.000] show you the way, yay, yay, yay,
[02:59.000] show you the way, yay, yay, yay,
[03:07.000] show you the way out.
