1. Ii’ve been thinking ‘bout roses one of nature’s designs how they don’t stick their noses in the business of dying what I suppose is when they fall from the vine they’re just making room for more things to bloom when it’s their time if roses are dead and people die too don’t worry your head they’re just something new the petals will shed i t’s just what they do only to wither so they can deliver life back to you i’ve been thinking ‘bout thorns how they’re sharp in your hands how they give off a warning how they state their demands and the opinion i’m forming i hope you understand that pain’s just a part of healing your heart it’s all going to plan

there's a pillow i keep punching
i always take you lying down there's a pill so hard to swallow i have to hide it in my mouth i'm sinking down the valley, can't find the surface i'm fighting the finale, like a novice novelist i'm pacing like Penelope, hope for my homecoming kiss course there's nothing worse than hoping at a lonesome time like this there's a hole where i keep whispering i always wonder if you hear there's a hopeless place where i know best but dear i don't dare to go near i'm counting up the memories and the sacrifices i'll spend them on you honey i don't care what the price is i'm testing several theories hoping to prove the same thesis but there's nothing worse than hoping at a lonesome time like this worry my mind, furrow my brow sweetheart i'm sweating bullets sweating you out how can i let you go when i still hope that hope exists i know there's nothing worse than hoping at a lonesome time like this still i just sit here hoping at a lonesome time like this hope springs eternal or so i've been told but i know it's terminal even hope gets sick, gets old oh faith you fickle friend you bargain and seduce disguised like a goddamn godsend just pretended to know the truth if it was lies why have I been holding all my breath in waiting for the big exhale i guess there comes a time to say goodbye to throwing pennies in a wishing well they say you can’t miss what you never had here’s my objection i’ll never miss something half as bad as relying on the lie of reconnection hope keeps a journal but words are cannon fodder grim reaps maternal grim reaps daughter may let go of june there was no other way for her to bloom it was no easy thing; it took all of spring she didn't leave her behind she just gave her some room may let go of june june turned to july she said does saying hello mean saying goodbye? cause retrospect is gonna break my neck but the future is bright and I know why june turned to july may, june and july felt a gust of wind fall flew by; offered a hand to lend you know if time stood still, nothing would heal seasons would stall; wounds wouldn't mend may will come around again Verse: C F G C Chorus: C F Dm G C F G C Bridge: C Dm G C sometimes you gotta let go of the good to make a little room for a little great sometimes you gotta do what you know you should let the hope just suffocate when the hope stops breathing maybe i’ll stop believing in a love that won’t come to pass when the hope starts dying maybe i’ll stop trying to turn fiction into fact i always seem to choose metaphor over reality but just this once i will refuse and say i loved you quite literally there was peace outside your window tonight but i drew the shade babe, and stayed so the hope stays alive and i try with all my might to get you to come outside with me and play |
