There was a time
I could look in your eye
Without word of a lie
I could say that I was trying
I was young
And the truth was a drug
I could not get enough
So I moved to supplying but
We were smart
We would never be caught
Always met in your car
Always dropped you in a different place
I heard you caught a blade
It was slow
But I started to know
That I just couldn’t hold up the weight of the gravity
Always there, pulling things from the air
You said “I used to care”
Well I used to do a lot of things
You were a bird and you wouldn’t be told
That the weight of the world
Was trying to pull you down to me
You floated out to sea
I couldn’t make
Couldn’t make it right
You never broke
From my line of sight
Making new valleys in the wake
Of all these shrinking seas
We were making new valleys in the wake
Of all these shrinking seas
It was slow
But I started to know
That I just couldn’t hold up the weight of the gravity
Always there, pulling things from the air
You said “I used to care”
Well I used to do a lot of things
You were a bird and you wouldn’t be told
That the weight of the world
Was trying to pull you down to me
You floated out to sea
I couldn’t make
Couldn’t make it right
Couldn’t make it right
You never broke
From my line of sight
My line of sight
Making new valleys in the wake
Of all these shrinking seas
We were making new valleys in the wake
Of all these shrinking seas
You were standing on the shore yelling out at the lake
But the lake didn’t make the mistakes that you made
And the lake didn’t care about the man that you wanted to be
You could see when it all echoed back to me
You were standing on the shore yelling out at the lake
But the lake didn’t want [?]
And the lake didn’t care about the man that you wanted to be
You could see when it all echoed back to me
You were standing on the shore yelling out at the lake
But the lake didn’t make the mistakes that you made
And the lake didn’t care about the man that you wanted to be
You could see when it all echoed back to me
Standing on the shore yelling out at the lake
But the lake didn’t make, didn’t learn it that way
And the lake didn’t care about the man that you wanted to be
That you wanted to be, that you wanted to
That you wanted to, that you wanted to…
