Same, It's been a little while since you came around

Cause it takes some getting used to a proper noun

From the ivy, to watching from the windows like some figure in the stony grey

So politely, but desperate for a one to hang on every single word you say

An adoptee on stacks of colored paper with your picture and the price we'd pay

It's like lately the things we never say hang on and on and

It's a foreign state and I know that you are, to say the least, just a bit unsure

Unsteady waiting for anyone to hear you singing softly through the basement door

Come back for me, let's both decay

When everyone is here I'm just standing in the way

Come back for me

But you had to go, like I had to stay

And when everything is gone I'll be drowning in the wave

Come back for me

You're an island, I'm a failing architect

A believer in the place we intersect

Because I know you like the scratches on my hands

Come back for me, let's both decay

When everyone is here I'm just standing in the way

Come back for me

But you had to go, like I had to stay

And when everything is gone I'll be drowning in the wave

Come back for me
