lyrics

if i call you at home
are you there?
hear a shift in your tone
it’s unclear
falling leaves, calming seas
broken hearts, stolen dreams
flower petals line the floor
but you’re not here

autumn’s come to my home
are you there?
hear you shake through the phone
a voice unclear
dying trees, fading stars
fancy cars, diamond rings
shadows dancing though my halls
but you’re not here

if i call you at home
are you there?
hear a shift in your tone
it’s unclear
falling leaves, calming seas
broken hearts, stolen dreams
flower petals line the floor
but you’re not here

be with me just for a while now
though you’ll never love me so
rest your head and close your eyes love
tell me all about your woes
hold me please don’t let me wander
your touch is all i need to know
let me breathe you in come closer
your scent it soothes my aching soul
be with me just for a while now

i am a mix of shame and blood and silence and fear
i’ll die in search of the god you left for me
i’ll buy in, we’re falling out
i’ll cry and we’ll sort it out
let me in or put me out
i’m trying

breathe, stay
as you need me
as you need me
please stay

i am a mix of shame and blood and violence and fear
i’ll live in search of the god you left for me
i’ll buy in, we’re falling out
i’ll cry and we’ll sort it out
let me in or put me out
i’m trying
