Silently I’ll pray for you
Every night when day is through
You don’t know what I feel for you
Said you won’t write songs about me, no
Your notes will play without me, sure
But northern skies have raised me love
I’m no stranger to the cold
I ain’t seen the sun here
In weeks,
Every line unending,
Complete
If that’s the resolution
You need
Then woman,
I will wait
I can’t find my words when I speak
I can’t turn them down when I sleep
Said I cannot lose the thought of you
And still keep me
This false home I have made
I don’t blame you
I don’t blame you
But somewhere deep down inside
I know you’ve got your reasons
Said you don’t build walls of glass
If you’re to save your kingdom
You can’t live in the past
If you’re a fan of reason
The good things never last
And if they did we’d leave em
Said I don’t know you
I don’t know you
Said I don’t know you
I don’t know you
Said I don’t know you
I don’t know you
It was the last days I found the hardest
Outside smoking in the car, love,
You know it can’t be long
Those August shores were strangely vacant
Our conversations were the same
It’s not the way it was before
But someday when I’m a memory
I know you’ll tell your friends ‘bout me and
I’d love to know how you’ll explain this
Don’t love, count cars
While I draw pictures on the dashboard
East on 495, dear
No, we’re doing fine here
And it won’t get easier
Than this
The sea and the sky clear
You by my side dear,
You know I could drown right here in the sea tonight
Yes I could drown right here in the sea tonight
With you
I cannot think of a reason why I can’t stay with you
I cannot think of a season when you were not here too
But my habits are deep seated and fleeting conversely
Said and I drink black coffee like my mother before me
The product of pessimism, almost destroyed me
If stabilities coming it’s slowly, not surly
I’ll be chasing it longer than you’ll ever need me
I’m sorry
Don’t love,
Count cars
While I draw pictures on the dashboard
East on 495, dear
No, we’re doing fine here
And it won’t get easier
Than this
The sea and the sky clear
You by my side dear,
You know I could drown right here in the sea tonight
I could drown right here in the sea tonight
I could drown right here in the sea tonight
I could drown
I don’t want to talk about it darlin
I don’t want to face the conversation
I know it can’t be long
Till the wind comes
Till it’s all gone
Till we both move on
To the next year
To the next home
To the next song
But I’m trying to explain to you
The way it feels right now
When you feel like you’re screaming
But you cannot make a sound
We could stay here
Slowly fade away dear
Slowly fade away here
Slowly fade away dear
And we could be fine here.
Yes, we could be fine here.
And we could be fine here.
Yes, we could be fine
I don’t wear a seatbelt on the ride home sometimes
And I fantasise about the center line
I don’t wear a seatbelt on the ride home sometimes
But my tail lights out,
And I’m high
And I didn’t sleep last night
These days I’m only tired
These days I work for pride
These days my words don’t write themselves
These days my songs don’t rhyme
But I just think it’s black when we’re gone, dear
It don’t bother me
Don’t bother me
These pictures only paint themselves so often
These pictures only paint themselves so often
These pictures only paint themselves so often
These pictures only paint themselves so off and on
Oh my love
Is creasing unfolded thought
And I’m inclined to bleed it away
Oh my love
Is creasing unfolded thought
And I’m inclined to bleed it away
You told me
Everything resolves eventually
I tell you you don’t know the shit you preach
We fucked like animals in my backseat
It’s not love
But I just think it’s black when we’re gone dear
Don’t bother me
Don’t bother me
Known it since I was young
There’s no God ‘bove me
Oh my love
Is creasing unfolded thought
And I’m inclined to bleed it away
Oh my love
Is creasing unfolded thought
And I’m inclined to bleed it away
Say I just think it’s black when you’re gone, dear
Something tied me
My breath in paces above you
My mouth impatient to greet you
Strangers to calling it more
When the night comes
You’ll sleep with someone I don’t know
I’ll drink till friends is a good show
And we’ll both get coffee in the morning
This ain’t right, love
But it’s right for the time
For my state of mind
And you need someone to protect you, God knows
Not the last time I’m sure
But I’ve been here before
I know how the book ends
Don’t tell me, regardless
Weight’s a close friend
The anvil is tied to the season
And winter has bled all to bleed
Once the last of your strong words run out
Might the soft words
Be velvet inside of your throat dear
But some words are too real to speak here
Some words don’t exist out loud
Red
Is a warm night with rain
When autumn is ageless
And the lights are all low
Warmth enveloped
I’ll hold you if that’s what’ll save you
But how I don’t know
But these sails are made from stone
And the water’s on it’s way
You can stay here by my side
And I will hold you but I cannot keep you safe
But these sails are made from stone
And the water’s on it’s way
You can stay here by my side
And I will hold you but I cannot keep you safe
