Porch Lights

I woke with your name on my tongue
your perfume still strong on my clothes
your last words still echoing
your face burnt into my eyes

if you lose faith in me
don’t forget the good in the world
I’m sorry, I gave what I gave
I’m sorry, that that’s all I can think to say

for all that we try, the river runs dry
and the courage we fake to not die alone
I ran the aches in my side
cause nothing sells cheaper than lies

they say there are two paths to choose
keep what you like as your friends
or risk what you love to some bitter end
but for me, I’d rather not choose

for all that we try, the river runs dry
and the courage we fake to not die alone
I ran the aches in my side
cause nothing sells cheaper than lies

for all that we try, the river runs dry
and the courage we fake to not die alone
I ran the aches in my side
cause nothing sells cheaper than lies

I ran the aches in my side
cause nothing sells cheaper than lies
