lyrics

They say I'm doing fine, my love is on the brinks. She's waiting like a rock, waiting for me
They say she's alright, but I know the truth. She's lying on the ground clawing her eyes out for the truth
I said I need to breathe, and it's all the same. Just a painful cityscape from an empty window pane
I'm falling apart inside, you can see it on my face. Let her be loved they said, let her be safe

I'm trying not to cry, but it's tearing me apart. It's falling into pieces like everything else
It all goes the same. My love was never safe. I needed time to see, I needed time to change

All hopeless and alone, dolled up, no place to go. I couldn't be more healthy, I couldn't be more alone
She takes her time, leaving me to bits. I picked them up and pushed them off this godforsaken cliff
For anyone who's lost, it can weigh a ton. Like a weight on your chest or an aching in your gut
I'm feeling so alone, like the moment you left. Everything is slipping out
of grasp, but it's in my hands

When everything is lost, you can find me here. I'm keeping it together just like everyone else
When everything is gone, and no traces remain. All the ones you once loved left me in the end
When everything is lost, I'll be waiting here. I'm holding my own on this rock, dear
When everything is gone, all shattered and plain. I'll be hoping that you remember everything I said
