about

For Sarah and Macie. I love you both.

lyrics

Your head was in your hands
Outside, waiting in your car
You don't want to be touched
I know because your stare is so jarred

This has been your plan since you could stand to see
The happy people holding tiny socks for tiny feet
"I guess it's not for us"
"Only perfect people dream"

But I won't let you lose your fire
You're not giving up this fight
Maybe put your faith in me
Cos I am gonna make it alright
I don't know how you are hurting
But you know I'm going to try
This is our everything
Don't you forget what it feels like

You shivered when I held your hand
On the mountain, your face of kind
That's the highest we climbed
I'm hanging on the slow decline

Many times I've been where I'm standing now
Just separation from the struggle that you're so avowed
But I'm trying to try
Give me a problem that I can define

But I won't let you lose your fire
You're not giving up this fight
Maybe put your faith in me
I am gonna make it alright
I don't know how you are hurting
But you know I'm going to try
This is our everything
Dont you forget what it feels like

Then she screams with jaded desire
Why can't we be enough - is there something wrong with me?
She raged until the room became so quiet
And then we both cried
Ugly and tired

But I won't let you lose your fire
You're not giving up this fight
Maybe put your faith in me
I am gonna make it alright
I don't know how you are hurting
But you know I'm going to try
This is our everything
Dont you forget what it feels like

Just take your time
You'll see a sign
