lyrics

it's the kind of dream that wakes you while you’re still in it
the kind of heavy eyelids that refuse to let the water quit
the kind that finds you wishing
the feeling of the one you’re missing weren’t self-imposed
& sometimes i wish we were different people
propelled by beliefs different
to what's been pulling us apart

before he passed he shared a lot of things with you
& he lived a life so true that he died of it too
& even such an action, which itself’s commitment to inaction
has left us something new

on paper i've got the upper hand
but fires burn of different colours
life lives not in courts rooms
or monochrome conclusions
its faults & its forgiveness
lie in its endless confusion for what’s true

i hear about you from friends we used to share
i know you'd rather move away than
find any unlovely way to live
so the demons you live with bring
you both woe & bliss

so it felt like it was love or at least a semblance of
some mutual admiration & understanding of our faults
that transcends the shit of everyday
it glowed so bright i couldn't help but look away

to swim without a shell to embrace
the softness of yours & others too
of life & death & in between, & heartbreaks & relationships
that weren't made to be mended, but never can be ended
i love you too much to love you
& at least now you can know that i do
