|
I have it in me |
|
To meet my maker |
|
And ask him why he likes to play |
|
Such sick games with hearts and brains |
|
But i'm finding reasons |
|
To keep on breathing |
|
And learn from past mistakes |
|
I'm heading down hill |
|
With no lights |
|
Or breaks |
|
I carry scars from my former loves |
|
Bury our passing and holding our hands |
|
You kick the dirt to cover up the holes |
|
I stand before you a new man |
|
So I disarm |
|
I'm as open as a child's love but |
|
Still as uncertain as the where abouts of that |
|
Lost ring |
|
That you're looking for |
|
You're still looking for |
|
That you dropped somewhere |
|
On the dirty diner floor |
|
And I still remember |
|
The reasons why we |
|
Dropped everything that we were doing |
|
Just so we could fall asleep |
|
Some words that |
|
I said Have made some dents in |
|
Your delicate outer shell |
|
We can nurse this back to health poised for battle, i'm invincible i've had it made see i'm armor for skin |
|
You approach, you're finger outstretched |
|
You're plugging my only defenses |
|
So I disarm |
|
I'm as open as a child's love but |
|
I'm still as uncertain as the where abouts of that |
|
Lost ring |
|
That you're looking for |
|
You're still looking for |
|
That you dropped somewhere |
|
On the dirty diner floor |
|
But now you look at me with those eyes |
|
You tell me all those things you despise about me |
|
We can throw the furniture around |
|
And all the things we found |
|
And you could lock the door |
|
Leaving no way out |
|
I'm having conversations |
|
With the back of your head |
|
We're sleeping back to back |
|
On each side of the bed |
|
If I could just touch your shoulder once throughout the night |
|
And when we wake in the morning |
|
We'll be alright |
|
