Days Go By

Feeling lonesome, feeling thin

But I can't just let you in

No, I can't just let you in

You crossed my heart and made it spin

Now I don't think I can win, oh you're underneath my skin

I should've fought it

I'm not ready to be the man you need right now

I'd risk it all, life and limb

But I can't ever be him

Darling where do I begin?

It's not much that you ask of me, I know

But before we call this love, I need a little time alone

To figure all my shit out

I'm buried underground

I ignore the people that I love and separate my mind from feeling

How would I know?

Where did I go wrong?

I'd cry but the days, they go by

You gotta let me try

Feeling lonesome, feeling grim

All the ties I'm severing

I was born to sink or swim

Now the walls are caving in

The anxiety begins

I can't fight the fire within

If loving recklessly's a sin, won't you sin with me again?

We tried to hold out

But I couldn't slow down

How could I know that it wasn't meant to be for forever?

It was a fine line

I hear a call in the night, need you right by me

Stars align when we are together

It's not much that you ask of me, I know

But before we call this love, I need a little time alone

To figure all my shit out

I'm bad at saying things out loud

I have forces that I set aside that circulate my lies for healing

How would I know?

Where did I go wrong?

I'd cry but the days, they go by

You gotta let me try

Now I'm out here all alone

Oooh-oh

It's not much that you ask of me, I know

But before we call this love, I need a little time alone

To figure all my shit out

I'm buried underground

I ignore the people that I love and separate my mind from feeling

How would I know?

Where did I go wrong?

I'd cry but the days, they go by

You gotta let me try
