Lyrics

There is a girl who sleeps in a bed That he never makes She trips on pieces of him in the dark He's hours away It's only love, he says You should try it Sometimes you get to sleep If it's quiet She waits for weeks to count the days 'til he comes back His trying eyes see nothing his voice begins to crack Don't stay up for me He wakes up, torn up, broke up and down Simple and strange Too many people lost in the dark But he knows his way He'll be just fine, she pleads But she hides it You can't forget how to breathe Have you tried it? And he's never felt so far away It's a shame that he's ashamed to say I love you, but I don't feel electric I feel dead I try to burn this riot running through my head I'll keep you lit I'll be the candle in your chest I know it's hard to handle, but I can do my best Don't give up on me I want to love you so I know you're good, I know A person has to grow How about we let this go?
