I stayed up all winter (the nights were long and bleak)
Pushing up against your heart (made my good senses weak)
You gave up so easy (I didn't see you blink)
I fucked up with true intent (I leap before I think)
All sewn up inside of my head (is a scene I won't see through)
It cuts me up when you smile (I know you don't mean to)
Place
your
fist
against
my teeth
and
Stop the words before they're sound
You don't want to hear this
It's like I'm a hundred feet above the ground
There's no wind and all around
Is the smell of fall and the soft resound
Of meeting minds and what they've found
How is it that I feel steady now,
But every move you make just takes me down?
(I know that you don't mean to)
