Lyrics

In the morning
I awoke to find you gone
What in the darkness
Holds the guilt above my heart
The new season
I took risks to find the truth
A hope for someone else
Some other than myself
I felt the rain
I sensed my restraint
I played pretend to fit your world
I fought myself to be your whole
But all along I’d always known in time that I would lose my hold
In the turning
Self defeat begins the call
Your renewing
Convincing me of all my faults
When I withdrew your comfort grew
So surely I must be the fool
If loves a feeling that can bloom, then why can't I give that to you
I know that I’m much more reserved
It makes you scared, It leaves you hurt
A faithful hand is never worth the pain that you never deserved
I cut you down to keep control
I let stillness consume your soul
When all you wanted was a home
I let you suffer through the cold
