lyrics

I fell down just to see if you were looking
I made a mistake that night
thanks for watching
I needed you to take me home
I was sick
we fell asleep alone
were you tricked?

Sometimes I just can't get a grip
it won't stick
no tread I'm falling on the ice
and I slip
so chaste this abortive heart
idyllic
can't sum twenty years of shame
in minutes

we know it's hard sometimes just know
I didn't want this to confuse you
I just never thought I'd ever see it through
you'll never read this and we'll not meet again
sleep well with him, I say again, please leave me home

You hope that it won't be hard for me to get it
like a monogomy of crows: we're locked in
trust me that I just want to hold your white wing
but if I break it and let go, you're walking

we know it's hard sometimes just know
I didn't want this to confuse you
I just never thought I'd ever see it through
you'll never read this and we'll not meet again
sleep well with him, I say again, please leave me home

Your spacial memory of me will fade and he will fill my void
you'll outgrown my scent, my touch, my voice
and if my talons break this branch please dear,
don't you watch me fall
don't watch me fall

And if such wings so colorful guide me to the ground
just know they're only yours
it's only you I'm thinking of
won't you please let go
it's better me than you
