lyrics

Some things in life are hard to master,
Others come more easily
It isn’t difficult to love you
But it’s hard to let you be
Hard to set you free

You talk as though we’re strangers,
You act like nothing’s changed
I can’t afford to play those games
You pile your careful words so high, precarious around you
Let me be the bull that shakes the ground
And sends the whole thing crashing down

Though I know
My words seem so out of place
And too sincere,
Shot into empty space
Still here’s one thing
That time cannot erase:

Nights grow clear, and meteorites light the atmosphere
My head spins, the world that I know’s at a standstill
Because of you

Lately I feel so unsettled
I almost broke down crying today
We struggle against the floodwaters of the paths our lives have taken
And watch each other float away
We cannot find a clever thing to say

Though I know
That our chance came and went
And you are just an unfinished sentence
In the margins of a letter I’ll never send—

Still, nights grow clear, and meteorites light the atmosphere
My head spins, the world that I know’s at a standstill
Tongue-tied, everything seems so remarkable
Because of you
