lyrics

I can't help but think that I'd rather be dead
asleep on the bed of a river
I can't help but love you
to love you like that
so much that I'd rather be dead

when you displaced my heart with your hand
itching to paint us a picture
I broke out some brick
I cut you a door in the wall
and I let you in

and oh how I sang out from wounds
and oh how I sang out to the sky

my past molded into the two of us
our future, to you, a guarantee
and our paths, such a beautiful crossing
but they never were parallel to me

the predicament on the fence
where I sat for months on end
was that I'd be wrong, and I'd also be right
in the measure that I was to give

because every time that you came around,
I gave it all to you
and when you'd leave, there was nothing but
a bag of my bones on the floor
and maybe you could, but I couldn't do it anymore.

the skeptical lines etched into your face
your numerous final goodbyes
it's all etched into me, remembered with grace
even your sunken, dark eyes
I loved you more than death
I'm still here because of that

and oh how I sang out from wounds
and oh how I sang out to the sky, alone
