Lyrics
Weighed down, hunched over, tiny shuffle steps
Cradling an armful of cardiac mess
That you made from piling mistakes some months ago
Head down, keep walking, trying to keep the pace
That you set in this fairytale race
To our happy, dream, forever home
You never saw the heartbreak that you caused
Till I was hurt enough to point it out
But I knew you were worth saying it to
And since then you've tried so hard
I find it hard to receive in love, but you keep showing me we'll work it out
We've grown, we're learning, I'm trying to let it go
Time heals, but damn it moves slow
Wish I had longer seeing that 'perfect partner' glow around you, but
We're real, we're breathing, we're made of flesh and bones
We find 'perfect' despicable
I think I might love you more for trying to love me better often
Cause you never saw the heartbreak that you caused
Till I was hurt enough to point it out
But I knew you were worth saying it to
And since then you've tried so hard
I find it hard to know the difference, is it standards or beyond a human love?
Love and perfectionism
Like some kind of masochism
Lock me up inside your prison and give me all you got
Love is only a decision
Die for you or nihilism
You are something more than my troubled heart
Love and perfectionism
Like some kind of masochism
Lock me up inside your prison and give me all you got
Love is only a decision
Die for you or nihilism
You are something more than my troubled heart
You're all I got
