So this is what it’s like to have it all turn dark grey
I watch the colours drain from the dynamic each day
Did we lose all the fun inhaling smoke from your gun?
Let me explain my love, let me explain
Why did this change? You’re holding back,
please speak with honesty - and honestly,
you held my hand so goddamn perfectly
We’re sinking again I’ll let you know I’ll let us go,
I’ll take the time I’ll leave it alone
Just know that I did all I could to make this last,
It couldn’t last
I’ve been finding all these pieces of her,
in keepsakes and reminders
with moments I can’t just put into words
when death takes us both,
could we meet on the other side?
I’ve been heart sick without her near me tonight.
I took it off, all the baggage I brought
We tried to make sense of the problems I’ve got
The last thing I’m left to think about
with you gone and as I’m falling out
Is ‘what can I learn from this’
And how do I mourn for what I miss
You’re holding back,
please speak with honesty and honestly,
you held my hand so goddamn perfectly
We’re drowning again
I’ll let you know, I let us go
I took the time, I left it alone
Just know that I did all I could to make this last
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
