I'll hold you by the edges
You don't think, just jump before me
Love me as I'm wrong
Irrelevant and swarmed
You're the only thing I want any more
We've been so under,
Deprived, vacant and ill-advised
But where else can we go?
I won't be breaking any more
Won't suffocate you any more
I won't be waiting at the door,
Always in hallways alone as you're putting on your coat
And if it takes the whole ocean to sweep you off your feet
I'm all pent up devotion, graceful in defeat
All the tropical funerals and armistice parties
Couldn't get those thoughts right out of me
I'm afraid
"Don't be"
I'm afraid
"Don't be"
When I'm afraid, don't be

I left the light on
We're all just trying to get back home
I know this is all just in my head
But your breath still lingers here
Like you're somewhere near
"Can you see me?
Don't you see me?"
You said
"Can you see me?
Don't you see me?"
You said
"I didn't think what I was leaving"
"Can you see me?
Don't you see me?"
you said
"Can you see me?
Don't you see me?"
Sometimes I don't know
But if you get tired of haunting
And you see me coming home
Then leave a light on honey
Or don't, if it's "no"

Grazed hands
Bruised knees
The shape of your eyes when you're not listening
Was so sure of myself
Making grand statements of intent
Pamphleting for things you never meant
And then the year that swallowed me whole
Hey Jonah, where's that boat gone?
I shouldn't feel like this
It shouldn't feel like this
Now every time I move, I confess
That I lost track of who I am
Somewhere back then
It shouldn't feel like this
Bones click
Lost limbs
I'm sick of hearing why
I'm this sad beached wreck
Like I had never seen you go

I know that I'm always around
But you know I'm never me
What was it you said you'd found in that hole in the middle of me
Nothing scares me quite like you and I
But I'm still standing in the same place waiting for you every night
With parade balloons and canapés
But you won't come back to see this
Let the streamers fly
If we'd all be so remiss
What was it you always said?
You're so far ahead of me but I keep turning around -
You're always there
Post feather letters through my door
Was a fearful child
But I adored you
I left my high strung heart at home
and the orchids out alone
Post feather letters through my door
Was a fearful child
But I adored you

In a bathtub, blood flows
Her legs undone
She's still trying everything to make that body stop
Swim out to sea
Swim out from me
I didn't need that, that's now how I meant it
But you're still calling, screaming, blaming
I don't know why
But I still try to please you
I don't know why
But I'm still trying to please you
I can't call this home
I won't call this home
I can't call you home
No I won't call you home
