Our resentment starts to build
All the nights we held but a polaroid
The cold sands of time run still
Through brazen nights, all prayers destroyed
It’s just clatter
That I can’t avoid
That sound of your footsteps
Fading away
Pretending I don’t deserve a place
In this team today
Where you’re expecting to be free
From a handler that isn’t even me
You say you can read me like a book
So you don’t hear me speak
And while our foundations are weak
Don’t lock me out
Cause it warps you too
Realize that the only words I have left
Are for you
The excitement may have drowned
All the days we dread now stay to fear
Yet some sweet haze surrounds
Your headlight eyes, I’m the stunned deer
Crossing the road
To your door in tears
You’ll swerve but soon blunder
Reeking of guilt
Depending on your past egos
For a fading will
Attending our loves lonely wake
For a purgatory we’ll never escape
You say you can read me like a book
Like you don’t hear me speak
And while our foundations are weak
Don’t force me out
Cause it warps you too
Realize that the only words I have left
Are for you
Don’t cut your ties
And hurt yourself too
Realize that the only words I have left
Are for you
Don’t close your eyes
Keep your ocean blue
Realize that the only words I have left
Are for you
