By now you've left town Your mind on the yellow lines You've left all my weight behind There's something very wrong You can feel it when you're with me A tender kind of distance I can't stop the thundering when it comes And I can barely look at you When you wear that love on your face So soft and new, I just can't take it Shoving down the dread...Learn More

I'm almost tired of hoping But haven't quite given up just yet Not done stoking this fire With my numb blue hands Just another in your listless legion You take names, leave a trail Somehow you're the only one I can't hide from I can't hide Here we go again Dancing this tango till the end Atop all our wasted time Holes have been poked in my...Learn More

You've given me quite a shiner A gleam in the soul, won't wash away Everywhere I go a reminder Of everywhere we've been And I miss the way you shone with me Tell me we can try again for some new ending Left your mark before you took your flight And now I'm trying sorrow on for size Tell me we can try again for some new ending And I'm not trying...Learn More

[Verse 1] The house we built is burning But I don't know who set the flame And I don't want to point a finger At somebody who doesn't deserve the blame My eyes had fallen shut or else I'd be able to lay it all out plain [Verse 2] Our little house is burning Though it's always stood on unsteady feet Thought if I put enough energy into hope I...Learn More

Sitting with the sting of separation Forgotten how to be on my own All the unused muscles I now need To hold myself together I was a self-sufficient being A sorrowful, mercurial thing Till your hands found my strings And you taught me how to fall open Frightened but still I surrendered I've got to be an island Can't open up like this again, open...Learn More

I could say you've been distracted If i wanted to give it a kind face I could tell myself you care beneath it all When you ask me how I'm doing as an afterthought But you would know if you were looking You would know if you were looking I emptied myself before you Gave you every bit of me I had And you sifted through me Deemed me unworthy But I'm...Learn More

[Verse 1] Here I go again 'Round the same old bends Circling the same old streets Every time I think This time is the one Lie delivered soft and clean [Verse 2] Something in the sound Of your name in my mouth Dissolve if I keep it there It was never mine To hold or to release In the throes, caught unaware [Verse 3] This never-ending hurt No...Learn More

There is nothing you can tell me That I don't already know Your face speaks your feeling so clearly You've gone glowing and rosied There's a gleam in your eyes now A shift in your light now And you're keeping it all a secret What was this fever dream of a life we had? Was it in my head, puddled in my hands? I don't know anymore Put me out of my...Learn More

I can pray for a being to listen I built a life around you But I can be a needless thing I can be a needless thing I wish I could disappear I wish I could disappear I wish I could disappear I wish I could disappear I wish I could disappear I wish I could disappear I wish I could disappear I wish I could disappear...Learn More

Accidentally opened your text I was trying to look unavailable Wanted you to picture yourself lost in my big life But your blue light shone on me Like a fridge bulb or a morning moon And lit me up inside too Funny what can come back After all these empty years You used to make me bright as a child Driving through all the old roads of memory And...Learn More

I'm no good at leaving I get too attached Reckless in my dreaming Fiction into fact Tender-centered love, I look at you and see a wish That I can play pretend, it doesn't have to go like this What I hold onto soon will slip Wish I didn't love you but I love you I'm no good at leaving But it's for the best Gave too much to the dream And I have to...Learn More

I'll do your dance And I'll sing your song I'll hold the place Till something better comes along And when you leave Me where I deserve I will be waiting For you to return...Learn More
