You talked me to sleep last night
|
I hadn't felt that sad in years
|
Your eyes like glass mistakes
|
They moved me close to tears
|
You speak those favorite fables
|
Which I am yet to live
|
And casually confirm my fears
|
That I've got nothing to give
|
|
I wish I could say
|
That I've got no regrets
|
But saying that would be one more
|
To pile on my desk
|
I wish I could say I've clung to time like gold
|
But as you said goodbye I almost died
|
I almost died
|
|
I take it back all of it
|
Those names I called myself
|
The heroes of my childhood
|
Like hardbacks on the shelf
|
I take it back those promises
|
I made to everyone
|
I'm falling through a ribbon last
|
Before I'd learn to run
|
|
I wish I could say
|
That I've got no regrets
|
But saying that would be one more
|
To pile on my desk
|
I wish I could say I've clung to time like gold
|
But as you said goodbye I almost died
|
I almost died
|
I almost died
|
