Echoes

I could have built you up

I should have given anything

It would have simple

Maybe have lasted longer than enough

Now, you could make me crawl home

You could make reasons true

And I know you want to

I know you better than I know me

But I'm sure you won't though

You're a better person than me

Or am I'm a fool or something?

Is this what happens when I leave you alone

Through all our drifting

Through all our conversations when I was

When I wasn't listening

To your wisdom

Through your pain and your quiet suffering

Please don't close your eyes

Please don't close your eyes

I should have been truthful

I could have been your superstar

We shouldn't have given up though

Only held you closer till the sun

Sun meets the ocean, but we crash, we tumbled down into the depths

All darkness and echoes

You know it better than you know me

And I hope you won't go

You're a better person than me

Or am I'm a fool or something?

Is this what happens when I leave you alone

Through all my drifting

Through all our conversations when I was

When I wasn't listening

To your wisdom

Through your pain and your quiet suffering

Now I'm listening to the echoes on the wall and I

Wish I would have listened to the words you told me and I

Now I'm listening to the echoes on the wall and I

Wish I would have listened to the words you told me and I

Please don't close your eyes

Don't let us

Please don't close your eyes

We both need your honest sighs

Don't look down

Please don't close your eyes
