lyrics

I wrote a letter that I could never send.
We always thumb through the same story’s end.
I know we're broken.
There's so much to mend

But I've been lonely.
Stuck on a carousel made out of driftwood
And some crooked nails.
I’m just a letdown coming back around again.

Let me find what I’ve lost;
Repay what I’ve cost you.
Can you live with what I’ve done?
Will I ever be the one when there’s a hole in your chest?
A poor attempt at my best.
And I’m only getting worse while you’re Harboring the Hurt I’ve Caused.

There’s an ocean we never seem to cross;
Another problem that gets the best of us.
‘Cause you’re an island
And I’m the undertow.

You want a family; to try and build a home.
A pair of footprints painted on the stone.
But I can fix this.
Please don't let me go again.

Let me find what I’ve lost;
Repay what I’ve cost you.
Can you live with what I’ve done?
Will I ever be the one when there’s a hole in your chest?
A poor attempt at my best.
And I’m only getting worse while you’re Harboring the Hurt
I’ve Caused everything to break.
How much more can we both take?
You gave it all you've got
While I stole what could be bought.
Now i'm just like all the rest
And it feels like second best
‘Cause I'm only getting worse while you’re Harboring the Hurt I’ve Caused.

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world. But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
