lyrics

I have come to hate the silence
But I would take it over what you said
If I’ve still a voice, I cannot find it
In the overgrowth inside my head

I’ve seen people snap back quickly
Learn to keep the narrative tight
I’m here stacking the pages thickly, but
I never seem to get this right
I never seem to get it right

Is it such a strange desire?
Somebody to heal beside
We live in a room full of wires
Pinned to things we’ve left behind
I don’t want to pull at your seams
Our loves are fragile things

I got devils taking their measure
Little critics calling my bluff
You should fabricate something better
Cause what you are could never be enough

I feel like I’m strangling a lion
When I keep my mind at bay
There’s so many hills that I could die on
But I’ve forgotten what I came to say

I keep flinching, bracing my body for the end
If love could be more than my willingness to bend
Could you help me see it

Is it such a strange desire?
Somebody to heal beside
We live in a room full of wires
Pinned to things we’ve left behind
I don’t want to pull at your seams
Our loves are fragile things
I don’t want to know what it means
Our loves are fragile things
