Parallax Error

You lean when I lean

Back and forth like tides

Finding my feet

Admit defeat

Losing all control

It’s all thoughtless consequence

Am I reading it wrong?

Maybe it was all in my head

I never wanted to be your keepsake

So put me in a jar

Seal it tighter now

I couldn’t tell myself to just stay quiet

I guess it’s not my time

Save me for another night, another night

You lean when I lean

I lose every time

I sip from your mind

While I slip from your mind

Never a surprise

History repeats itself now

When the hand hits the twelve

Rest me safely on the shelf

I never wanted to be your keepsake

So put me in a jar

Seal it tighter now

I couldn’t tell myself to just stay quiet

I guess it’s not my time

Save me for another night, another night

And you fall away

You’re not mine

I was so close

This time

And you fall away

You're not mine

I was so close

This time

I never wanted to be your keepsake

So put me in a jar

Seal it tighter now

I couldn’t tell myself to just stay quiet

I guess it’s not my time

Save me for another night, another night
