Every time you look at me I'm overthrown by gravity pulling me down Is it trying to bury me, bring on my early death or hold me safely to the ground? Every word you said to me is carved into my memory like words on a gravestone let my heart build a monument and dedicate it to you without realizing I'd made it into my home What goes around comes back around And it's all coming back to me I didn't know how to love someone who needed the ocean When all I had was the sea If i could explain I'm sure you'd understand But you never listen to me I'm standing trial against everyone I've ever loved And they've all found me guilty If i let you destroy me will you finally feel free? You called me again in the middle of the night To tell me you found god in the centre of the eyes Of a pretty girl who never cries the way I did every day Now the sun puts on a show, she's taking off her clothes But the moon just says goodnight And so it goes with you and I and all our starry-eyed fantasies, washed away As the trees all shed their leaves, seasons change and so do we As we burn away our fears With ink stains on our hands from all the eulogies we read Shaking hands, make us bleed You are bitter wind Against my freezing skin The reason I stay in on these cold October days You're the breath that I inhale While I write these words Wishing there was something I could say I know I fall to pieces every time you touch me I really want you to stay My funeral boy, body like a coffin Laying in an empty grave I tried to write about the end of the world But I wrote about you instead Your breath is the saddest song I've ever heard
