I would lace together pretty words And tie them about your neck So they sparkle on your face And pin such dreams to your clothes So you can wear them everywhere you go, everywhere you go.
I won’t forget you, I need the pain.
I would blend a palette of melodies To paint upon your skin So your reflection sings, And conduct your very breath To play along in harmony, to play in harmony.
I won’t forget you, I need the pain.
Yet I am drowning in memories that stick to me like oil And suck me beneath a sea I would swim so easily I can lace nothing, I can blend nothing.
I won’t forget you, I need the pain.
I couldn't lie I couldn't lie I looked in your eyes And couldn't lie And then you left You couldn't live like this Well here's the thing baby At least we exist.
