Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Without you, I'm stronger, I'm no longer)
(Filled with wonder)
(How wrong you were)
[Verse 2]
You, you told me I was younger
That I was filled with wonder
How wrong you were
[Verse 3]
(For you, my lungs were pulled asunder)
(By that wild blue yonder and said, "such endless blue")
[Verse 4]
For you, I would have gone so much blonder
Seen that wild blue yonder and said
Let's end this too
[Verse 5]
So one last time, love, come and rip my clothes off
Grip the bathroom rug, my skin's grown so soft
[Verse 6]
(So one last time, love, come and rip my clothes)
(Get a grip, we're grownups)
[Verse 7]
Let's wander, till the fuckers demand an encore
Flirting, wasn't flirting, In the back of a bookshop
[Verse 8]
Come and rip off my socks like you're blasting the locks off of a bank vault, halt!
This time we're done for
[Verse 9]
Let's hide under the covers
We don't know what's out there
Could be wolves
So hold me, lover, like you used to
So tight, I'd bruise you
I'd bruise you, I'd bruise you too
[Verse 10]
Every stone you threw, I stood on to better see the view
I've got something in my eye
[Verse 11]
(I surrender what was, what could have been)
(All those wonders sit in wait for us, we tried)
(Try, please try for me)
[Verse 12]
Don't you ever wonder, what could have been?
All those wonders sit in wait for us, we tried
[Verse 13]
Tried my best to get thinner
Come rest for the winter, wear my jumper all night long
Those songs we sung, those words we flung
For fear of sound
All those books that we both drowned
[Verse 14]
And the candle we lit, well we'll use it to burn this whole place to the ground
I'm lost
I'm found
In you
[Verse 15]
Let's hide under the covers
We don't know what's out there
Can't you hear that scratching?
Hold me, lover like you used to
So tight, I'd bruise you
I'd bruise you, I'd bruise you too
[Verse 16]
Every brick you hurled, I'll use to build this world
This world, this world, this world
[Verse 17]
Let's hide under the covers
We don't know what's out there
Could be all our demons darling
Hold me, lover like you used to
So tight, I'd bruise you
I'd bruise you, I'd bruise you too
[Verse 18]
So hide under the covers
We don't know what's out there
Could be ghosts, or monsters, or a robot vampire, I dunno
Hold me, lover like you used to
So tight, I'd bruise you
I'd bruise you
I'd bruise you
I'd bruise you
I'd bruise you
