|
Brown grass and peeling paint |
|
Dirty glass of lemonade |
|
And your back's about to break |
|
Cause it's more than you can take |
|
Is that what you were talking to Jesus about? |
|
All those things you can't figure out |
|
You've been chasing those dreams for so long now |
|
But your devotion turns to doubt |
|
And the people you hoped you would meet |
|
But you're still here with me |
|
When you lay down by my side |
|
When the lights are all out |
|
You've got no corners where you can hide |
|
Especially from yourself |
|
And you kiss like a corpse |
|
And you smile like a crow |
|
And my threads are too short |
|
When your wounds are exposed |
|
And the places you hoped you would see |
|
But you're still here with me |
|
And I sleep with your ghost |
|
The dotted outline of what you were |
|
But what I miss most |
|
Is when you'd draw near |
|
Cause this house would rattle and shake |
|
When we'd stay up late |
|
And the grass was green and the glasses were clean |
|
And these walls were covered with brand new white paint |
|
And the person you thought you'd be |
|
But you're still here with me |
|
You're still here with me |
|
But you're still here with me |
|
But you're still here with me |
