You've never been easy to reason with
You're not getting easy if you're quiet for long
Whenever you leave me
You sing like a canary
And tend to get it terribly wrong
I close your mouth with a kiss
But you shoot it off like you wish it were a gun
And since the wind won't blow it shut
I wish somebody'd sew a button to your tongue
We'd spent two seconds in the sun while it's setting
And the sky'd turn black or blue
I don't remember it the way you remember
And I'm never going to
If I could light a flame
To burn away the rest of me that's left in you
You'd think I meant to keep you warm
Not before assuming I still love you too
I'm not so sure I do

You've carried the old days for long enough already
Well, aren't they getting heavy to hold?
But you wanted both ways
One life for taking photos
And one you'd never show to a soul
What found the grace of your knee
When I left you basically bleedin' in your room
If you'd not sweat it of by now
You'd be far better off just howling at the moon
We'd spent two seconds in the sun while it's setting
And the sky'd turn black or blue
I don't remember it the way you remember
And I'm never going to
If I could light a flame
To burn away the rest of me that's left in you
(The rest of me that's left in you)
You'd think I'd meant to keep you warm
Not before assuming I still love you too
I'm not so sure I do

You need a place to believe in
I left you basically bleeding in your room
We'd spent two seconds in the sun while it's setting
