Cherry Picking

Last January (The Twilight Sad)

There’s no point in running any more 
I broke the window and jammed the door 
Left you lying in your bed 
This was all a bit of fun 
I don’t know what I could have done 
I don’t know what I could have said 

I never told you I was falling in love 
Couldn’t bring myself to walk in with eyes wide shut 
This is terrifying, this is something new 
But I don’t want to be myself, if that means being without you 

Everybody says it’s just a phase 
But they don’t understand the way 
We know each other back to front 
You’re my favourite album track 
You are those days I won’t get back 
The only race I want to run 

I never told you I was falling in love 
Couldn’t bring myself to walk in with eyes wide shut 
This is terrifying, this is something new 
But I don’t want to be myself, if that means being without you 

The lights are off and I’m the one without a chair 
But you haven’t got a leg to stand on 
Look at us now, this is so unfair 
But this is far from being done 

I never told you I was falling in love 
Couldn’t bring myself to walk in with eyes wide shut 
This is terrifying, this is something new 
But I don’t want to be myself, if that means being without you

The Bridge EP

But I Could Never Be You Either

Florida has changed your skin
And now you won't let nobody in
I'm so tired of being tired all the time 
But you're still dancing; you're still trying to cross that line

Seattle breeze has locked your jaw
It's left me running in circles 
And we're so tied up in ourselves that we can't see 
That maybe all of this just wasn't meant to be

You're just another crack in the wall
Another story left untold
Maybe we know how this is gonna end 
So maybe we should just stop pretending 

Give her some chat up line about Tennessee
There's only one thing for you now and it's not me
If everyone is so suddenly aware
Then what the hell is it that I'm still doing here?

Alaskan winters aren't so cold 
But hell will freeze before I stay if truth be told 
Should we admit that we're both on borrowed time? 
If I stop running will you show me there's nothing to hide?

You're just another crack in the wall
Another story left untold
Maybe we know how this is gonna end 
So maybe we should just stop pretending 

Ginger's Song

See the wall I've built for myself,
Am I on the side of the free?
Can't help myself watching from afar,
Do you know that you're tormenting me?

Can't you see that one day you'll be standing where I am now
Watching all those you've left behind
Replace the void with anything you can find
And I'll watch you, coming over the hill

See the wall I've built for myself
Holding me back from nobody
There memories that I've still to forget
And you can watch me, coming over the hill
