Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I still remember that night on your roof
You walked on the edge and asked what I would do
If you jumped
If you left your body, would I leave mine too?
[Verse 2]
Your skin is not the same
So much has changed
Your voice and your teeth and the way that you pray
I still want you
How you come, how you want to
[Verse 3]
And why won't you eat what you made?
The love that you give is the love you should take
What good is a heart that will not break?
[Verse 4]
And when we walked by that old lake
All of the ice that has slowly decayed
What good is a heart that will not wait?
[Chorus]
All the fears that you held me with
The years that you held me with
And I'm still wearing the clothes that you held me in
Spell the end, spell the end
[Verse 5]
You don't know who you are
So we go and look
In your old school, old park
Playgrounds in the night feel like prisons
You look up and whisper the words that are missing
[Verse 6]
And I'll wait, wait, wait
As long as one can
My legs fall weak
I'll start to bend
In the middle of the road
Windows like eyes are watching our show
[Verse 7]
And why won't you eat what you made?
The love that you give is the love you should take
What good is a heart that will not break?
[Verse 8]
And when we walked by that old lake
All of the ice that has slowly decayed
What good is a heart that will not wait?
[Chorus]
All the fears that you held me with
The years that you held me with
And I'm still wearing the clothes that you held me in
Spell the end, spell the end
[Outro]
All the fears that you held me with
The years that you held me with
And I'm still wearing the clothes that you held me in
Spell the end, spell the end
