lyrics

I know you’re trying to tell me what is on your mind

And all I hear is what is wrong

Forego the crying, took some guts to stay behind

But now I fear we stayed too long



For my leaving, if we’re trying, then let’s agree to stay

While we’re grieving, nothing’s dying, not the way we used to be in other days



If you run to me, run to me with open arms

And if you’re leaving me, leave me alone and spare me harm

So now you run to me, run faster now and don’t look back

We could remain a pair if we share in what we lack



So when you want to send a message loud and clear

Be sure to tell me where it’s from

And then you ought to bend the rest, it’s out of fear

You push the point back where it comes from



If you run to me, run to me with open arms

And if you’re leaving me, leave me alone and spare me harm

So now you run to me, run faster now and don’t look back

We could remain a pair if we share in what we lack



Grown-up lame-ass childhood games

Drama-tized-out Shepard plays

When would you like to quit?

Have you had enough of it?



You mention therapy as if I need it now

Because it’s worked so well for you

Dementia wears on me, so yeah, I’ll go right now

Projection serves the whole night through



For my leaving, if we’re trying, then let’s agree to stay

But I’m leaving, no one’s trying, not the way we used to say we’d always do



If you talk to me, talk to me with open ears

And if you’re listening, please shut up so you can hear

So now you talk to me, talk faster now, and don’t think back

For every passing grace gives us a chance to get on track
