lyrics

Chapped lips
Surrender to your overbearing chin
Covered in its army of fur
Stirring my mixed emotions
Creating waves, creating oceans

Time and time again
I can see your smile, hear the near silent creak in your bed
I do what I can
With you holding my dreams and my face in your hands

Release me from your hold
Teach me to be empty, to be cold
Let go to let me go, let me go
Release me, but you won’t, you won’t, you won’t

Days go by, maybe a week or three
Of me hearing nothing, seeing no one
Then you come running back
And I always break, always crack

Time and time again
I can taste you skin, feel the warmth of your breath on my neck
I do what I can
With you holding my dreams and my face in your hands

Release me from your hold
Teach me to be empty, to be cold
Let go to let me go, let me go
Release me, but you won’t, you won’t

I’ve got nothing left to offer
Not that I’d offer anymore
We’ve been through it all before

Release me from your hold
Teach me to be empty, to be cold
Let go, please let me go
Release me, but you won’t, you won’t, you won’t
