lyrics

i sell you thoughts that i'd leave you alone today
fine, it's fine, draw your lines on us growing or blowing away
how long can a heart stay so novel to someone who knows all it has to hold?

should i mistake you for another chance of getting somewhere i thought i should be will you vanish like thoughts from a waking dream?
always there in my mind, but i don't retrieve
stolen out from my eyes for the longest while, returning only to haunt me with that smile

i bank on you just as much as you bank on me
fine, change your mind, back and forth every day, on the hour, on a dime
how long can a heart stay so novel to someone who's pulled out at all the cords?

no thoughts for line of retreat, no words for a patch-me-now-mend-me-later routine
no reason for haunting your mind with words, spinning lies when hoping to unfurl all the time spent crying for the waves: serving only to haunt me with that smile
