She (For Liz)

She has no problem with secrets She knows how to keep them She never felt the need to let them show And I've had no trouble with speaking Or trusting my instincts Then maybe this is one that I should know But as I'm waiting there The devil on my shoulder stares Laughing that the one thing I can't get Is what I need She, she is the words that I can't find How can the only thing that's killing me make me feel so alive? And I couldn't speak I couldn't breathe to save my life Although my chances swim like sinking ships This time it's it I'll drown or make her mine My vocal chords, they've been fighting My mouth likes to spite me It never says the words that come to mind And I brought a stick to a gun fight And I'm stuck with my tongue tied I run, but I can't hide what's always there And she, she is the words that I can't find How can the only thing that's killing me make me feel so alive? And I couldn't speak I couldn't breathe to save my life Although my chances swim like sinking ships This time it's it I'll drown or make her mine I can see these things I'd do But never seem to follow through She, She is the words that I can't find How can the only thing that's killing me Make me feel so alive She, she is the words that I can't find How can the only thing that's killing me make me feel so alive? And I couldn't speak I couldn't breathe to save my life Although my chances swim like sinking ships This time it's it I'll drown or make her mine
