Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's 6 AM, I'm shiverin' beneath the bedsheets
The pillowcase fell off whenI held it in my arms
I read short stories while you twitched in your sleep beside me
Your breath, it felt so heavy as I sat there in the dark
[Verse 2]
Oh, you whispered quiet, making friends beneath the scenery
Of a sun cracked open sky beneath the dark lids of your eyes
You were skippin' stones and I was still alone
When I turned off the light, scribblin' onto sticky notes
[Verse 3]
Scared and that's the best that I can say
I work a job to pay the debt I owe my family
Pay you back for that one time I pushed your chin
'Cause all this hope I hold just buries its evil in me, out of sight
But slips through a hole in my side
I've seen another of me and you
[Verse 4]
Climb in that Buick down 222
And I'll close my eyes, the sun goes down each time I see the light
I swear it's true
[Verse 5]
And I've bowed down to this crown watchin' old dogs age
Without whimperin'
I find it hard to say that I am strong
[Verse 6]
But I'll be sure with each passing breath
To read you stories that are glimmerin'
With the light that reflected off these marigolds
That caught my neck when I hit the ground
[Verse 7]
And oh, you whispered quiet, making friends beneath the scenery
Of a sun cracked open sky beneath the dark lids of your eyes
And you were skipping stones and I was still alone
When I turned off the light, scribblin' onto sticky notes
[Verse 8]
I'm scared and that's the best that I can say
All we are is all we are and still I will become
All I am, all I thought I can't become because
All we are is all we are and still I will become
All I am, all I thought I can't become because
All we are is all we are and still I will become
All I am, all I thought I can't become because
All we are is all we are and still I will become
All I am and all I thought I can't become because
All we are is all we are and still I will become
All I am and all I thought I can't become because
All we are is all we are and still I will become
All I am, all I thought I can't become because
[Verse 9]
And oh, you whispered quiet, making friends beneath the scenery
Of a sun cracked open sky beneath the dark lids of your eyes
And you were skipping stones and I was still alone
When I turned off the light, scribblin' onto sticky notes
I'm scared and that's the best that I can say
I'm still tuggin' on your hand like when I was innocent
We used to only lie when we needed sleep
