Find a thread to pull and we can watch it unravel The lines we both have sewn to form the fabric of a fragile home We'll spend a month apart At least I know when you'll be coming home But this is just the start We'll find out who we are
A hint of light in the dark But only enough to keep from giving up If I could go back to the start To break the pattern forming between us
***
I know this will mess things up tonight But god it feels so good to close my eyes I'll say that I've been trying to move on We both know I'm not
It may be different now but the pattern won't wash out Covers up our eyes, leaves us knots and severed ties We follow new lines
I would trade this sleep for you in a heartbeat But this weather will not lift
It leaves us shouting into cliffs without an echo Each day you come closer So close I can almost feel your breath on my shoulders But I know if I turn around you might run away again
It may be different now but the pattern won't wash out Covers up our eyes, leaves us knots and severed ties We follow new lines
Stuck like those prehistoric mammoths in the ice Thaw me out and I won't close my eyes Stuck like those prehistoric mammals in the ice Thaw me out and I won't go to sleep tonight
