It took a while / for the dust to settle this time
Your words cling to my spine / thick like honey and sharp as a knife
And now that I’m sober / I feel it all the way in my bones
You pull me in closer / only to let me go
I am done bleeding
I am done grieving
I’m done believing
I’m leaving...
I wish that I could shed these thoughts of mine
Heavy as time
I wish that I could shed these thoughts of mine
Heavy as time
You spread your words on me like butter / and let them melt at the tip of your tongue
And just like that I crawl back into / the false promise of your open arms
And Melancholia, she’s waiting at the door / always keeping score
I let her take my hand / in the aftermath she’s all that I have left
I am done bleeding
I am done grieving
I’m finally breathing...
I wish that I could shed these thoughts of mine
Heavy as time
I wish that I could shed these thoughts of mine
Heavy as time
I wish that I could shed these thoughts of mine
Heavy as time
I wish that I could shed these, could these thoughts of mine
