| [00:08.49] |
I would build walls |
| [00:10.30] |
For miles around me |
| [00:12.05] |
Around anything that hurt |
| [00:13.74] |
Any sensitive category |
| [00:16.01] |
Kept love at an arm’s-length |
| [00:18.63] |
It was natural to me |
| [00:20.31] |
You did not agree |
| [00:23.25] |
|
| [00:23.81] |
You said things like “unhealthy” |
| [00:26.51] |
And I took on the task |
| [00:28.32] |
Of changing my pattern |
| [00:30.01] |
All you did was ask |
| [00:32.34] |
And the walls all came crashing |
| [00:34.30] |
At a welcoming speed |
| [00:36.39] |
I was convinced you’d never hurt me |
| [00:39.90] |
|
| [00:40.71] |
And I used to cling to the back of your mind |
| [00:44.30] |
But I must have let go |
| [00:46.26] |
At the moment in time |
| [00:48.63] |
When she offered careless physical joy |
| [00:52.38] |
Both bouncing my heart around |
| [00:54.63] |
Like a cheap rubber toy |
| [00:56.89] |
And after countless |
| [01:00.08] |
Hours |
| [01:01.64] |
Of crying |
| [01:03.81] |
Trying to forgive you |
| [01:07.73] |
Believe you |
| [01:09.38] |
Grow a spine and leave you |
| [01:12.00] |
Grieve you |
| [01:13.06] |
I’ve come to this conclusion |
| [01:17.20] |
No one prepares you when choosing to stay |
| [01:20.88] |
How to dare share a bed again |
| [01:23.06] |
Keep demons at bay |
| [01:24.88] |
She took something precious |
| [01:26.90] |
That was just meant for me |
| [01:29.02] |
Not for her eyes to see |
| [01:32.63] |
|
| [01:33.20] |
And I used to cling to the back of your mind |
| [01:36.95] |
But you must have let go |
| [01:38.90] |
At the moment in time |
| [01:41.34] |
When she offered careless physical joy |
| [01:44.95] |
Both bouncing my heart around |
| [01:47.40] |
Like a cheap rubber toy |
| [01:49.34] |
And after countless |
| [01:52.39] |
Hours |
| [01:54.15] |
Of crying |
| [01:56.52] |
Trying to forgive you |
| [02:00.20] |
Believe you |
| [02:01.82] |
Grow a spine and leave you |
| [02:04.20] |
Grieve you |
| [02:05.70] |
And after countless |
| [02:08.54] |
Hours |
| [02:10.34] |
Of crying |
| [02:12.66] |
Trying to forgive you |
| [02:16.66] |
Believe you |
| [02:17.91] |
Grow a spine and leave you |
| [02:20.73] |
Grieve you |
| [02:21.91] |
I’ve come to this conclusion, |
| [02:25.27] |
|
| [02:26.61] |
After all the years you invested in me |
| [02:31.16] |
All the love, tears, and possibilities |
| [02:35.43] |
I realize that if the tables were turned around |
| [02:39.09] |
You wouldn’t leave me now… |
