Pretty Little Things

The Well- The Crane Wives

An unreleased song by the crane wives 

Lyrics -

my body aches, every second sits like sand in between my bones
i suffocate with the weight of all we wish we did not know
can we forget the pregnant silences, the things i should have said when i was biting my tongue
i should've known better, lost count of all the little empty wars i never won
now i want more time
i want more time
oh
my heart's aflame, disappearing like a burning cigarette 
can't watch it fade, so feed it everything until there's nothing left
We can't unsee the new horizons or unhear the things you said when you were cruel and afraid
never made you a promise, lost count of the little empty words I would've changed
now i want more time
i want more time
oh
dig in, make it last
don't leave me quite so fast
i want more time
i want more time
i want more time
oh
dig in, make it last
don't leave me quite so fast
i want more time
i want more time
i want more time
