lyrics

Happy for the hour
We can repair
And in this moment we are growing
We can do better
We can do whatever
It takes to (two)
Keep it together
Soon we’ll be on our own
So you got the feeling
Of what you got in your hand
Just because you can feel it
Don't mean you understand
So get a grip
But not too tight
You may find that you can suffocate
And strangle out all of the life
Honey I am not your baby
You're smothering me again
The space between is never quite enough
Your open arms appear more like trap doors
Shoulders can't support the weight
Goodbyes really aren't your thing
Knotted intestine welcomed over this
Brought together in order to separate
It's hard to be yourself when you're tangled with another
Throw in the anchor to the water but you'll never reach the bottom
Lost in the wind cold breeze and crowded by the clutter
I'm smothered
