First and Second Verses
pas de deux
try not to cross
all your lines
but you move them all the
time
shoes are tied
but i still
fall over my own feet
cause i know
that’s the only way to keep
you loving me
cause you always needed
me to need you to
and i wanted to be wanted
by you
if only we knew
the dangerous cacophony
we’d turn into
now the bloods on both our hands
and we can’t discern it then
if it’s mine or yours or thems
both be bleeding out
begging
for the other to come and save us
but there’s nothing a new
grave can dig up
so we’ll silently die all
alone
alone together
but at least we’re together…
right?
luckiest loss
watching the pilot light go out
where do i go now
no direction
just the threat of burning
down
so i lay at your bedside
i make you laugh
the way that i’ve
done since i was 5
but i have to talk enough for the both
of us
cause now you can barely speak
but ill always feel the love
i’m watching you
slip through my fingers
your gone before you die
and i knew it was coming all this time
but you changed my
life
how lucky am i
to have something so hard to say goodbye
i will always live my life
for you
i’ll love you until the day we
both die
comeback
always had the habit
of traveling down the road
not traveled on
but we thought we’d get along
be able to tell them all i
told you so
we wouldn’t get
caught at forks in
the road
but once we
reached the forest
and it started to snow
you couldn’t take the cold
and you said it’s
time i go
but i haven’t moved
from this
old oak tree
hoping one day
you’ll find your way
back to me
imagining all we could have
if you just turn around and come back
homebound
i grew up fast
came straight from
the ground
maybe that’s
why this pit in
my stomach keeps
weighing me down
i’ve cried
so much
i’ve been forced
to dance through
my own pain
you laugh
like you could
until you
you came
became my escape
and made me a home
in a place
i never
felt love
and i didnt think
it would ever come
now home follows me
home is your two arms
around me
